Hi Jamie,
Sorry for not replying earlier on this. I first tried merging them
when you sent the mail, but couldn't figure out a good way, especially
with git.kernel.org being down, I can't see how the merge with the
netdev tree would go (it would probably fail miserably because of the
file move).
DaveM, do you have a copy of the netdev tree available somewhere else,
so I can take these patches into a branch that I push after yours is
in? If not, I think it would be better to take the driver into your
tree instead, including the ARM specific changes.
