As I said it in my first mail, doing that is unnecessary - but 
if you insist on being difficult then Catalin, feel free to pull 
the patch from tip:sched/arch:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched/arch

   HEAD: 01f23e1630 sched/arch: Introduce the finish_arch_post_lock_switch() scheduler callback

it's v3.3-rc7 based so it will generate no conflict with 
linux-next. It only contains this commit so you can use it 
without pulling in other pending scheduler changes.

This is the trivial and easy Git based topic branch approach 
PeterZ asked Russell a month ago to consider:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/16/232

which request Russell sadly ignored.

In any case, Catalin's ARM work is not blocked in any fashion.

Thanks,

	Ingo
