LS2080A is the first implementation of the chassis 3 clockgen, which
has a different register layout than previous chips.  It is also
little endian, unlike previous chips.

You should probably mention here that the patch is depending on another
pending patch to apply.  And this patch should be going through the same
sub-system tree as the dependency patch.  Otherwise, there is no way it
can be applied.

Cover-letter already captures this:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg442910.html

See the section 'Rebasing details'. linux-clk is already copied.

But not all the patches are depending on the clk patches.  You should
probably break up the series to patches that can be applied cleanly
and patches that are depending on the clock patches and should go
through the clk tree.

The clock patches have already been acked, so they don't necessarily need to 
go via the clock tree.  However, there are both ARM and PPC patches that 
depend on them, so maybe we should create a topic branch?
