Ok, I sent a new version of the phandle stuff (which was easier than
expected, and doesn't affect any other patches).

So to summarize, what's pending is:

1- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/242041/ (sparc: stop exporting
   openprom.h header)
   Acked by Dave

2- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/242601/ ([v3] sparc: convert
   various prom_* functions to use phandle)
   Acked by Dave

3- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/141011/ (sparc: break out some
   PROM device-tree building code out into drivers/of)
   Acked by Dave

4- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/141021/ (sparc: make
   drivers/of/pdt.c no longer sparc-only)
   Acked by Dave

5- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/141031/ (of: no longer call prom_
   functions directly; use an ops structure)
   Acked by Dave

6- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/141041/ (of: add
   of_pdt namespace to pdt code)
   Acked by Dave

7- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/141051/ (of: add package-to-path
   support to pdt)

8- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/141071/ (x86: OLPC: add OLPC
   device-tree support)

The make-of-build-on-x86 stuff is already in your tree.
