Just merge the pull request in.  I should send something out
on Thursday I expect, though no guarantees about -rc6.  It doesn't seem
sensible to not merge the fix.

Or bend the rules for arm-soc by putting it in your own -next branch and
then rebasing before it gets pulled into arm-soc.  This would seem a
sensible thing in general given arm-soc has this sort of model, it'd
avoid what is essentially an extended merge window for arm-soc but still
give things exposure in -next before they hit arm-soc itself.
