Hi,

Rebasing my rpi3 branch on your for-next I have these remaining bits:
d94a99d pinctrl: walk into bcm subdir unconditionally
Linus picked up that one.
c0a50e3 arm64: Add BCM2835 support to the defconfig.
Guess I should just send this one.
950c904 ARM: bcm2835: Add devicetree for the Raspberry Pi 3, for arm
(32)
Same here.
0f62ee0 ARM: bcm2385: Don't force pl011 onto pins 14/15.
See below.
0128845 i2c: bcm2835: Set up the rising/falling edge delays.
86a6a6a i2c: bcm2835: Set up the clock stretching timeout at boot.
fe554b4 clk: bcm2835: Mark the VPU clock as critical
0db14ab clk: bcm2835: Mark GPIO clocks enabled at boot as critical
ad775cd clk: bcm2835: Mark the CM SDRAM clock's parent as critical
4fe62f0 clk: bcm2835: Skip PLLC clocks when deciding on a new clock
parent
These are picked up from the mailing list. Are they one the way
upstream via i2c/clk branches?

I'll send my patch.

While talking about gpio: what is the status/plan for all those gpio
device tree changes? Defining & using the standard groups? The sdhost
patches have device tree changes depending on them ...

Looks reasonable to me ;)
cheers,
