Yet that patch is in linux-next today.  And just 2 days ago I mailed out this request (as I do during each merge window):

"Please do not add any code intended for v3.15 to your linux-next included
trees until after v3.14-rc1 has been released."

I have no problem with that particular patch being sent to Linus during
this merge window (in fact Paul intends to send whatever is left of the
series at the end of the merge window), but it makes me wonder about the
other commits that you have added to the gpio tree (and the pinctrl tree)
today.  Are they intended for this merge window or v3.15?
