Thanks for the OMAP patch. I have pushed a couple of temporary and
non-stable branches to:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/swarren/linux-tegra.git

Branch scu-base-rework contains just the SCU base address patches. After
the few things listed below, I'll rename this branch and send a pull
request to arm-soc.

1) Olof asked that Russell Ack or otherwise OK Hiroshi's latest versions
of the following two patches since he commented on previous versions:

ARM: tegra: Skip scu_enable(scu_base) if not Cortex A9
ARM: Add API to detect SCU base address from CP15

2) Lorenzo's last comment on "ARM: tegra: Use DT /cpu node to detect
number of CPU core" was:

Please add missing punctuation, reword the commit log to make it clearer.

... so that patch needs a reworded commit log.

3) This branch needs testing on both Tegra30 and OMAP (I'm away from the
office at the moment and can only test on Tegra20 here),

Branch test-test-hdoyu-t114 contains the most recent version of the
Tegra114 series from Hiroshi, mainly for my local testing etc. Hiroshi
said he will repost an updated version based on the latest Tegra common
clock framework changes. For the record, what I plan to do when applying
this is:

1) Merge the renamed tmp/scu-base-rework into Tegra's for-3.9/soc.

2) Apply the new posting of the Tegra114 patch series.
