my timex-removal branch isn't enough, because it bases on v3.13-rc1
which does neither have arch/arm/mach-efm32 nor the commits that allow
to drop the select CLKSRC_MMIO nor the commit that allows to drop
<mach/entry-macro.S>.

That's why I wrote that armsoc/[next/]cleanup is the first commit that
makes my cleanups possible.

The only options I see are:
 1) merge v3.14-rc1 into my timex-series myself and base on that;
 2) wait until my timex-series enters a tree with >= 3.14-rc1 that is
    stable; or
 3) drop commit "ARM: efm32: drop unused file <mach/timex.h>" for now
    and base the rest on top of 3.14-rc1.

I did 2) assuming that next/cleanup is stable. Actually this isn't much
different from 1) because the commit I based my changes on is just
3.14-rc1 + your merge of my series. So even if you want to redo
next/cleanup throwing out some merges different than mine it shouldn't
be too hard to keep the merge you did.

The details are:

 - "ARM: efm32: drop selecting CLKSRC_MMIO" depends on
	09ca27579ee5 (clocksource: time-efm32: Select CLKSRC_MMIO)
   which is in v3.13-rc5;
 - "ARM: efm32: drop unused file <mach/timex.h>" depends on
	79f08d9ed217 (ARM: drop <mach/timex.h> for !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM, too)
	6d85e2b0b6be (ARM: new platform for Energy Micro's EFM32 Cortex-M3 SoCs)
   so I need v3.14-rc1 + dropmachtimexh-v2 for it;
 - "ARM: efm32: drop unused file entry-macro.S" depends on
	e6d159cdf9f7 (ARM: 7890/1: v7-M: drop using mach/entry-macro.S)
   which is in v3.14-rc1.

Please advice,
Uwe
