I've read through this entire series now. In my mind, aside from a few
comments that I know you're addressing, this is ready.  The hooks into
arm64 core code are not terribly invasive, it is nicely organized and
manageable. Get the next version out ASAP, but I would also like to see
the diffs from this version to the next so I don't need to review the
entire series again.

Regarding the requests to refactor ACPICA to work better for ARM. I
completely agree that it should be done, but I do not think it should be
a prerequisite to getting this core support merged. That kind of
refactoring is far easier to justify when it has immediate improvement
on the mainline codebase, and it gives us a working baseline to test
against. Doing it the other way around just makes things harder.

I would really like to see the next version of this series go into
linux-next. I think this is ready for some wider exposure. Have you got
a branch being pulled into Fengguang's autobuilder yet?
