I agree with Fabio and Guennadi. There are so many changes happening at arm
that merging those two patches there will likely be easier for everybody. 

Otherwise, I'll need to pull from some arm tree that never rebase, with
the needed patches, and coordinate with you during the merge window,
to be sure that patches will arrive there at the right order, from the
right tree.
