Hi, Neil

Forgive me I cannot find the cover letter in the original series in my
mailbox to make a reply, so I rudely made here just letting you know
something good to the growth of mt7621 support in upstream.

do you have maintained an out-of-tree branch to boot the mt7621 machine
with those staging patches?

If so, it would become a bit easier for me that maybe I could give a
hand for migrating these staging driver for mt7621 to mainline. I
thought mmc, pci, ethernet, gsw and hsdma all could probably reuse the
current mainline code.
