It seems it would still be possible to create a patch series containing
just the PRCMU refactorings (which are really nice) and necessary
modifications to the MOP500 series so we could get this ground work
into the 3.7 merge window (if Sam is happy with it).

Actually it'd be nice to have a patch series containing that *and*
Lee's recent patches for e.g. IRQ domain on the PRCMU in one
big series, that would prepare the ground very nicely, then only
the DT board stuff would be missing for a successful U9540 DT
boot.

Is this possible?

Yours,
Linus Walleij
