    Well, the plan was to try to get the whole patch set all upstream together.
    I'd prefer that, because it'll be easier to make sure everything gets in before
    the last checker patch. Since it touches so many different places I'd be OK
    with doing it peicemeal.

    I'm kind of new to this whole process: do you think someone is likely to take
    this patch set all together?

    Sorry about that, I must have mis-grep'd. I guess that's what the build-bot is
    for :).

    Yep, that makes sense.

    I'm going to re-submit a v5 of this patch set, since there was also a missing
    patch for blackfin that the buildbot found.
