No.  My patches are in my tree queued for this merge window.  They
are part of a series that can not be broken up and merged separately
because all the per-platform patches need to be merged before the final
patch "ARM: smp: remove arch-provided "pen_release"" otherwise the
platforms break.  I thought that was already explained.
