Yeah, that's why I wanted to send out these patches.. I saw an earlier
email that suggested you changed this area. I didn't want to base my
tree off your devel branch tho.

We actually don't have SCU or TWD. So I suppose we can just have
"if !ARCH_MSM" for SCU/TWD , if that's reasonable. How do you want to me
