No problem. So the preferred scheme is to have three topics
for a SoC: fixes, cleanup and "new stuff" or something like that?

Depends. For Srinidhi's
"mach-ux500: enable fix for ARM errata 754322"
yes, definately.

For:
"mach-ux500: unlock I&D l2x0 caches before init"
it's a performance regression, nothing like a crash or so.

(I guess you're referring to these two?)

I'll fix.

Since it's just two patches I guess you can just pick these
two in plaintext? But I can make a pull request if you prefer...

Thanks,
