NACK ;-)

The subject specifies tango_xtal, but the patch changes sun4i_timer.
(Looks like all patches in the series are off by one.)
And I see you've already acknowledged the issue an hour ago.

The actual patch for tango_xtal is [PATCH V2 32/63] clocksource/drivers/tegra20_timer

BTW, I wasn't CCed on the tango_xtal patch.
I suppose I forgot to add the appropriate line in MAINTAINERS?

Regards.
