Note this patch series contains some iProc PCIe patches as per-requsite
that need to be applied before the ARCH_BCM_IPROC arm64 patch. Without
the PCIe patch, arm64 build out of defconfig would be broken.

Bjorn has acked the PCIe patches. I'll re-send the entire patch series
to you and arm at kernel.org and you can merge them there.

Thanks,

Ray
