Hi Vineet,
      This patchset is based on Andrew's mmotm tree, there are some 
differences
between mmotm and the upstream kernel, sorry for the inconvenience.
      Once I sent those common patches to all related maintainers, but 
the CC list
is too long and also caused other troubles. Next time I will send all 
patches to
linux-arch maillist.
