I asked Arnd to create an immutable branch containing the patches
in my pull request below in arm-soc:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-October/374547.html

I can then resend v3 of this series on top of it, or if you prefer I
will send you a pull request (to a branch based on the arm-soc one with
my patches on top) just let me know.

Thanks !
Lorenzo
