I would like to merge the new support that depends on this in 2.6.32,
so unless there's major objections, I'd like this to go in early during
the merge window. We can sort out separately how to carry the patch
around in -next until then since the powerpc tree will have a dependency
on it.

Can't see any problem with that.

CC'ing Linus here. How do you want to proceed with that merge ? (IE. so
far nobody objected to the patch itself)

Maybe you can put it as a separate branch in -next, and have it merged 
before the stuff that depends on it, and then just sending it to me (as a 
git branch or patch or whatever) in the first day of the merge window?
