I guess this series missed 3.5 merge window. I was re-basing the OMAP5
minimal support against the 3.5-rc2 and one of the dependency for that
series is $subject series.

Tony,
How do we get the dependent series merged early enough so that OMAP5
support can be merged in linux-omap master to avoid any late build
breaks.
