Looks good. Keeping the changes per topic like that works well,
especially in cases where the cross-dependencies don't get too heavy
(and they are not at this time). Even though we will aggregate them to
fewer branches in arm-soc, getting them sent up as shorter topic
branches is great.

If you wanted to separate things out a bit more between soc and board
changes, you could split off some of the top commits from the topic
branches to a secondary board branch. But given that most of tegra now
is just two DT boards, there's no real need to keep those few commits
separated out.
