Bjorn, I saw that you set the series to "not applicable". Is this because
of the missing ack for the arm part?
I checked and Lennert's last kernel contribution is from 2015. Having said
that the maintainer's entry may be outdated. Not sure who else would be
entitled to ack this patch. The change is simple enough, could you take
it w/o an ack? 
Alternatively, IIRC Russell has got such a device. Russell, would it
be possible that you test that there's still no false-positive parity
errors with this series?
