Re: [PATCH v10 00/22] Add support for binding ACPI platform profile to multiple drivers

["Ilpo Järvinen" <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>]

Hi Rafael,

This series seems ready and Mario has requested it to be merged through 
platform drivers tree despite majority of changes touching 
drivers/acpi/platform_profile.c because its API relates to many pdx86 
drivers.

Is that fine with you?
