The cover letter will gather all the recipients which will be more than 
50 and this mailing list blocks such post until it is manually reviewed 
and approved.  But looks this list is not actively moderated and my 
cover letter and the combined patch of this set in v1 still have not 
been approved yet...

Thank you Florian!  I agree and the changes in this patch series are 
trivial and only for Broadcom ARM Broadband chip after all.
