The SoB chain is now a bit off as you picked it from my tree. Nothing
that we can't fix, but please be careful in the future. You also
failed to pick Florian's Tested-by: tags, which is worse. Please make
sure to pick these things as people reply to your series.

Will, Mark: any objection to the general shape of this series? I've
been using it again to test the 32bit PMU support in KVM, and would
rather see something merged while the architecture still has some
relevance.

Thanks,

M.
