Pulled into next/dt, thanks!
This was a small set of patches and you're new to the job, so there is
no problem with what you sent me, but I have a few comments for the
future:
* Please provide a description of the series that I can put into the
merge changeset, either in the introductory mail or (better) into
the signed tag that you send (git tag -s). Have a look at how
Tony Lindgren does this, he writes the best descriptions.
* I've used the next/dt branch, since that is what most of the patches
from this series best fit in. However, some of the patches would
have made more sense in a different branch (clock, cleanup, ...).
When you have things that are logically separate, just send separate
pull requests. This takes some practice to get the dependencies
right, so please ask if you are not sure how to do it.
* It seems the zynq multiplatform changes didn't make it for 3.8. I
hope you can do this for 3.9, as this should not be too hard.
