Tony,

Can we clean these branches; it is very confusing to track with so many 
multiple versions?

Also, One patch still has not merged is,

[PATCH-V2] ARM: OMAP: cpu: Make cpu_class_is_omap2 true for all non-omap1 platforms

Do you have any comments on this? If not, can you merge it?

Thanks,
Vaibhav
