As I understand it from discussions in
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.devicetree/162059> and
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.samsung-soc/53048>, we
shouldn't block merging the series but someone should pick up this
work after the merge.

So probably Yakir should fixup the problem pointed out by Guenter and
send a new pull.
