I am fine either way. I'm fine with pick all the patches and go through the
chrome/platform tree if Mark is agree (I think this patch has no other
dependencies and the patch applies cleanly to my tree) or all can go through the
Mark's tree. If I need to an IB I can also do it without problems.

I'll leave Mark to decide who has much experience solving this kind of problems.

Thanks,
Enric
