A logistical question- this patch-set spans both sparc-next/sparclinux 
net-next/netdev, and there are obviously some dependancies here. 
What's the prescribed way to handle this sort of thing? 

(I ask, because I expect to soon be confronting a similar question with
some Rx side latency improvements that I'm working on, which will require
new functions for enabling/disabling interrupts in arch/sparc/kernel,
and I am wondering how that should get sequenced).
