Subject: Re: [PATCH] [TRIVIAL] IBM Akebono: Remove select of IBM_EMAC_RGMII_WOL

Hi Paul,

These days I've been made maintainer of the PPC4XX tree so maybe adding Acked-
by: Alistair Popple <alistair@...ple.id.au> might help?

Jiri, if you would rather this go via the main PPC tree please let us know and 
we'll see if Michael Ellerman (added to CC) would be willing to take it (he 
has taken over most of the day to day maintenance of the PPC tree). Thanks!

Regards,

Alistair
