You mean just for sun5i-a10s, or for all of sun4i / sun5i-a10s and
sun7i ?

For sun4i and sun7i things are already fixed in next:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mripard/linux.git/commit/?id=5a7f2310cc847a73852e70bc720a61ca9bf986a6
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mripard/linux.git/commit/?id=c79255ca4d7b67cce4eac4dd532e097ce49f3679

It seems best to use those fixes, rather then come up with a separate
fix for 4.7.

My patch for fixing sun5i-a10s is inline with the 2 above patches,
which seems best, rather then doing something special for just sun5i-a10s.

I'll send a v2 of this patch with the spelling mistakes pointed out
by Peter Korsgaard fixed.

Regards,

Hans
