I also wonder how it came to the Reviewed-by tag for me. The last thing
that I said about the patch was "On what does it depend if this pfunc
stuff works or not? Only the SoC, or also on some board specific
properties?" (see above) and "the patch looks ok". IMHO this hardly
justifies to add the Reviewed-by tag for the next round. :-(

Best regards
