to simplify the matter and to legitimate the process somehow I decided
not to include this change of maintainers into my last LPC32xx SoC pull
request, hence the pull request contains only code changes.

In other words please let me explicitly delegate a decision to you or
other ARM maintainers when and which way to apply this change. As for
me here I would prefer to get Signed-off-by tags from one of you.

If I'm worried for nothing, or if you don't consider to pick these
changes up directly from linux-arm-kernel@...ts.infradead.org, for
your convenience I'll send a pull request to arm@...nel.org.

For what it's worth this is a link to the last discussion with Roland
on LAKML (the discussed problems are handled at the moment):
