Sebastian, I assume you're targeting v3.13 or later for this patch
series? If so, it might be a good idea if I apply this patch myself to
the Tegra tree so that I can base any future Tegra patches on top of it
to avoid any possible conflicts. I can put this patch first in the
cleanup branch so you can merge it into whatever tree you use for the
rest of this series. Does that work for you? If so, let me know. Thanks.
