Jason,

I have seen the forwarded patch before. I don't know what version this
is based on. Some of the modifications are in next-20130701, some are
not. I have stripped the Marvell modifications from the patch you
forwarded and fixed all remaining issues.

Also, I will sent a follow-up patch to remove memset references from
Marvell SoC dts/dtsi and the binding documentation soon.

I guess, Bartolomiej should pick them up and resend his patch set, or
leave Marvell alone and you pick them up.

Sebastian
