Thanks for asking, Arnd.

The latest version (v5) of this series that I will send shortly has
the dependencies on the following branches.

* rmk's for-next branch with the following additional patches wait for
  rmk to apply:
  - ARM: l2x0: add empty l2x0_of_init (Rob Herring)
  - ARM: cache-l2x0: add resume entry for l2 in secure mode (Barry Song)
  - ARM: localtimer: add header linux/errno.h explicitly (Shawn Guo)
  - ARM: smp: Add an IPI handler callable from C code (Marc Zyngier)
  - ARM: smp: Add a localtimer handler callable from C code (Shawn Guo)

* Rob Herring's "GIC OF bindings" series, currently on

    git://git.jdl.com/software/linux-3.0.git gic-v2

  tglx has picked up the two that are irq core related.  And I'm not
  sure about the branch that Rob will push others to.

* Branches that will be merged into arm-soc
  - Sascha's imx-cleanup
  - Sascha's imx-features
  - [GIT PULL] DEBUG_LL platform updates for 3.2 (Will Deacon)
