Hi all,

The clock patches that I have signed-off on and picked from the list
are all rebased on top of 3.4-rc4.  They can be found here:

git://git.linaro.org/people/mturquette/linux.git clk-next

If the branch is missing anything that I have ACK'd then please let me know.

The obvious thing missing are the recent platform ports.  Those folks
probably want to test on top of this branch first so it seemed
premature for me to pull them.  After the recent platform ports go in
then I'll ask for this to head into linux-next.

I want to understand a bit about how these patches go to linux-next.
Mike would be sleeping right now, so will not disturb him ;)

Arnd,

Can you please help?

Just like Mike, you also asked me to base my patches on an rc release.
Now, few of the dependency patches are there in linux-next that i would need.
Some under my authorship, and some from others. And this number can be 30-50.

Should i ask Mike to apply all of them first and then my patches OR do that
myself and send a pull request. Which would mean all patches, that weren't
related to my patchset also get pushed through my branch. Isn't that a problem?
