I believe you can queue the libata patches independently (patches 1, 4,
7, 8, 9, 10, 11). It looks like they have been written such that driver
continues to work with existing platform code (Bartosz, please disagree
if I am wrong). 1/14 still needs the ack from DT maintainers.

I would like to queue the platform parts (rest of the patches) through
ARM-SoC since they will likely clash with code I have queued.

Thanks,
Sekhar
