We're definitely open to applying patches directly, ideally either by
you acking them or by you applying/testing them and then sending them
on to us (at arm at kernel.org).

In this case, for this fix, just send the patch over with your S-o-b
on it and I'll apply it. Likewise I'll queue up the previous branch
for 3.14 as soon as the merge window is over so that it'll find its
way in for 3.14.
