Hi Andreas.

Congratulation being the new sparc co-maintainer!

I have now verified that the kernel can boot with qemu.
There was a bug in the uart driver that is fixed and upstream, and then
using the instructions you provided I could use buildroot with an
external kernel tree to get a booting kernel.

Assuming you agree with the patchset how do you want me to move forward?
I can rebase on top of the latest -rc and collect acks if that helps.

Arnd promised to pick up the patches until you got a git tree up,
but I do not expect Arnd to pick up anything unless you have acked or
reviewed said patch(es).

If I rebase the patch-set I will likely include a few bug-fix patches that
was prepared in the meantime.
I can also send them as a separate series, no worries.
