    Looks like in this case I had no choice since R8A7790 support for the 
'sh_eth' driver will be added in 3.12 only, so if I merged these patches thru 
the shmobile tree, we'd have gotten an error in the driver...
    I guess it's too early to fix this in any particular tree except for 
linux-next itself... let me know what I can do.

WBR, Sergei
