I couldn't find the patch adding mach-stixxxx's Kconfig, though I seem to be
missing patch 6 of the series. As long as CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_754322 appears in
the resulting .config, it should be fine.

CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL's gone as of 3d374d09f1: "final removal of
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL", so that's fine to go. CONFIG_GPIO_PL061 and
CONFIG_MMC_WMT get selected elsewhere, so that's fine.

It looks like the architected timer deselection is fallout of my own making,
the multi_v7_defconfig should now contain HAVE_ARM_ARCH_TIMER rather than
ARM_ARCH_TIMER.

Thanks,
Mark.
