Exactly my question.

Fabrizio: Given your feedback on "[PATCH v3 0/3] ARM: renesas: Enable SMP on
R-Car E2", I think SMP enablement on RZ/G1E has to be postponed until "ARM:
shmobile: rcar-gen2: Make sure CNTVOFF is initialized on CA7/15" has been
accepted upstream.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
