There isn't anything at the moment pending for the SH tree that cares
about or conflicts with any of this work, so it's ok with me if this all
goes through arm-soc. If there is any fallout we can take care of it
later on in the merge window. This would seem to be a saner option than
attempting to merge half a dozen branches with dependencies on each other
in precise order, which doesn't leave a lot of time for fixing up
any residual merge window damage.
