Don't do that. Do a git fetch on that branch and then git merge
0c1dcfd. The patches before that Marvel commit are already in Linus
tree. That way it does not matter who sends first or not.

We don't force others to drop stuff and cherry picking is a nuisance
as well as you end up with two different commits doing the same thing.

Also for the next merge window: Can we please let everything under
drivers/clocksoure go through Daniels and my trees?

I'm starting to be grumpy about anyone thinking that this directory is
a public dump ground with no rules.

Thanks,

	tglx
