fair enough.  i'd point out for the cpu unification, the patch is 400k and i'm 
not about to go splitting it up just so the mailing list will accept it.  if 
people actually care, they can read the diff in the git tree.

so for all Blackfin patches, i'll post them and people may review them, but 
you wont merge them until i put them into my tree for you to pull ?
