This last sentence is slightly misleading :-) .

The actual fact is, that these new bindings for the rk3288 gmac have not been 
released with any official kernel release yet ... i.e. the will be released with 
3.20 in whatever form, so we don't _need_ to care about keeping compatibility 
still for the next 2.5 weeks or so.

@Dave: it would be good if this series (when fixed) could still go into the 
3.20 material so we don't get stuck with the non-standard regulator property.


As we'll probably need a v2 due to at the issue in patch3, could you also 
switch places of patch1 and 2, which would keep bisecatbility (i.e. regulator 
property before removing the voltage setting from the driver).


Otherwise this series:
