Bummer. That means duplicate wasted effort was done :(

Looks like the original patch no longer applies because of commit
247c445c0 (ARM: OMAP5: Add the WakeupGen IP updates). So I'll just
update the comments to mention Benoit's original patch.

I guess the lesson here is that everybody must follow up on their own
patches to make sure they get merged. Especially on fixes.

still needed in the testing-cleanup branch?

BTW, there was also Felipe's TWL removal patch that was done in a slightly
different way "[PATCH] arm: omap: drop unused IRQ defines:
