This looks right to me:
Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@...aro.org>

I looked at all patches that I understand, the VLAN tag stuff needs to
be reviewed by Vladimir who I think has a clear idea of how that should
be done. You can add my Acked-by because I looked at them and they
look right but I can't claim to have made a thorough review on those.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
