Hi David,
This patch has already been merged into Linus tree. The other two (2/3 and 3/3) still need to be reviewed.
I'm not sure how this works when series touch multiple subsystems -- that is, these changes should go through your tree or Steve's?
Please let me you know if you need anything else.
Thanks! Paulo
