Hi Olof,

FWIW, I believe that that the diffstat between
5c174afd407acc7a90701900b279578151bc007f and
9394af4314554d15762585a3464cefaa2e6d0420 is what was included in the
pull-request. But I guess that all the merged-in branches are hampering
your verification process.

Would it help if things were arranged as follows?

1. Use the clocksource branch as a base and then;
2. Merge in each of my branches (the ones listed above) and then;
3. Add the patches on top
