Thanks for the changes.  So as you probably already saw, a few changes 
have been made.  The updated series is in the branch 
'io_chain_devel_3.4' on git://git.pwsan.com/linux-2.6.

The main outstanding question is whether the OMAP4 WUCLKOUT poll should be 
removed to match the v5 changes to the OMAP3 function.  Please let me 
know.   Any other testing or comments are of course welcome.
