Pavel/Jamie: Can you take a look at these too and make sure these cover what you were doing.


So Dinh, just to get this right, you're wanting me to revert  "Remove parts that were picoxcell-specific" and apply your two changes to my tree?

The other 4 patches above are then fine to go in via arm-soc? Or do I need to merge those in too?
