Hi Greg,

You've merged the #3 atmel patch and #5 the 8250_mtk patch; the msm_serial
patch (#4) is no longer applicable since the authors changed it to tristate.

That leaves the top two patches; both for PPC hardware.  Did you skip
those because you wanted them pushed through the powerpc tree?

If so, that is fine, I can do that.  Just let me know.

Thanks,
Paul.
