These three patches had trouble:
> arm: mvebu: move Armada 370/XP pinctrl node definition armada-370-xp.dtsi
armada-370-db needed to be hand-jammed. Please double-check that it
went through correctly. The error was something about missing repository
info. Usually that means the patch was based on something weird...
> arm: mvebu: define and use common Armada 370 UART pinctrl settings
Same here, 'patch -Np1 <...patch' went fine, though. Please double
check.
> arm: mvebu: add .dts file for Synology DS414
This broke the build :( I did s/ge[01]_rgmii_pins/pmx_ge[01]_rgmii/ to
fix the issue. Did you run 'make dtbs' before you sent?
At any rate, whole series applied to mvebu/dt.
thx,
Jason.
