It would be nice if we could still get this for 3.10, but AFAIK it is 
already much too late.

I've discussed this matter with Arnd and the solution that can be accepted 
by arm-soc maintainers is to send a subset of this series, like in the 
patch sent by Arnd (clocksource: add samsung pwm timer driver; it needs 
additional fixes, though.).

Best regards,
