David,

In fact, the patches are designed to be added on top of Jamie's rework 
of the macb driver that is now in Arnd's "arm-soc" git tree (for-next 
branch). You discussed with him here:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg118717.html

Should I go this path also or wait for this material to be merged and 
update on net-next at this time (after 3.3 merge window...)?

Best regards,
