    drm-vc4-next goes through airlied's drm-next. bcm2835-* are intended to
    go through Florian's stblinux tree, though things didn't go that way
    this time because I'm still figuring out timelines.

    Looking through Next/Trees, it looks like stblinux isn't in the list.
    That seems like something that would be useful, given that Florian's
    been successfully sending pull requests to arm-soc for at least a couple
    of releases. (<1445718981-13552-1-git-send-email-f.fainelli@gmail.com>,
    for example). His branches appear to be defconfig/next,
    devicetree/next, maintainers/next, and soc/next, all on
    https://github.com/Broadcom/stblinux.git.

    Stephen and Lee have limited time to work on 2835 as it's only been a
    free-time project for them afaict. I offered to help on the merging
    process, since it's job related. I don't have kernel.org access any
    more I think, and it turns out github process is familiar to 2835's
    potential contributors, so it's working out quite well to host the
    branches there. They're still chiming in with acks and feedback when
    time permits, though.
