Thanks a lot for getting this ready. I see that your branch is based
on top of 4.4-rc4. Is this necessary to get it working?

I'd prefer not to have a backmerge, and the branches are currently
based on 4.4-rc3. If you don't mind, can you rebase the branch on -rc1
or -rc3?
Also, I'd prefer to merge the new .dts file as a separate patch, so these
I can take it through the next/dt branch. As far as I can see, there are
no dependencies here, you just need the file to get the machine to boot.

I'm also happy to do all the above myself next week if you prefer.
