(Cc'ed Greg KH)
Looks good for me, and I need to get the ack from Greg before applying.
Greg, if you're ok, I'd like to send this series to upstream via Samsung
tree for supporting device tree because this touches a lot of arch/arm/
Samsung stuff. If any problems, please let me know.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Kgene.
