The l2x0 branch contains these commits, so you can use that as a basis
for your work.  If you have other dependencies, you may have to merge
this with other branches.

Note - an issue which came up with the GIC PPI pull request - if
you're merging by commit ID, please go back and edit the commit
message using git commit --amend and make it _more_ informative.  This
is far from a useful commit message:

	Merge commit '32cffdd' into ppi-irq-core-for-rmk

What this is actually doing is merging Thomas' IRQ tree, but that message
gives no clue that's what happened.  On the other hand, a real pull gives
this kind of message:

	Merge branch 'ppi-irq-core-for-rmk' of git://github.com/mzyngier/arm-platforms into devel-stable

And this says exactly what tree is being merged from where - and such
a line explains why the other commits (which come from someone elses
tree) are there.
