Yes right, as Krzysztof commented, the pull-request has been rejected by
arm-soc even I explained it has been tested on smdk5433, because it will
not be compiled without relevant board DT file. And I've rebased when
new -rc1 released until 4.3...because Chanwoo said at that time that
regarding DT file will be submitted but not yet...

To be honest, I'm not sure I can keep the exynos5433 changes for v4.4 in
my tree at this moment...

Could be...hmm...

Thanks,
