This patch can be merged before U6715 platform one without problem.
Where I post the series in linux-kernel or linux-arm or both mailing lists ?
Greg has already taken this patch in its linux-next tree, need to resend
to him the patch with new comments ?
All U6715 platform patches are already posted in linux-arm mailing list.
It's my first contribution and I don't know how to proceed.

Thanks
Philippe
