Hi,
so, v3.8-rc6 is out, and based on Linus' release message:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=135968304820921&w=2
he only wants to see patches that "fix major security issues, big
user-reported regressions, or nasty oopses".
So as a result the fixes that you've recently sent will be deferred to the
v3.9 merge window.
...
As far as the OMAP4 PM stuff goes, I'm pretty disappointed that v3.8 is
going to be released with non-obvious bootloader dependencies for
full-chip power management. Let's get the warning patch written and
posted right away so it can go in during the v3.9 merge window.
