Hi Mauro, once Hans sends you these patches, can you host these patches
on a stable branch, which I can merge into my pull request to ARM-SoC. I
have some platform updates that depend on these driver changes.

Ideally the branch has only these patches over an early v4.10-rc so I
include as little of media stuff as possible in my pull request.

Thanks,
Sekhar
