  Linux 3.16-rc6 (2014-07-20 21:04:16 -0700)

  MAINTAINERS: add entry for Broadcom ARM STB architecture (2014-07-22 16:17:29 -0700)

Let me know if you'd prefer just Acked/Signed-off-by/Reviewed-by patches
sent to your mailbox instead of git pull reqs.

I expect these patches to go in through Russel King and through
drivers/power/, so I left them out:

  ARM: Enable erratum 798181 for Broadcom Brahma-B15
  ARM: do CPU-specific init for Broadcom Brahma15 cores
  power: reset: Add reboot driver for brcmstb

----------------------------------------------------------------
brcmstb platform support, for BCM7xxx STB SoCs
----------------------------------------------------------------
Brian Norris (2):
      ARM: brcmstb: select GISB arbiter and interrupt drivers
      MAINTAINERS: add entry for Broadcom ARM STB architecture

Marc Carino (6):

I applied all but "ARM: brcmstb: add debug UART for earlyprintk support"
to mach-bcm for-3.17/[soc|dt]. That patch should also go through
Russell.

Also, pull requests are fine, but it will help greatly to have pull
requests split into the appropriate arm-soc categories next time. I
split these into soc and dt as that is how they need to go to the
arm-soc team.

Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the tip. I just submitted the earlyprintk patch to Russel.

Sure thing. In the future, I may just stick with patches, and you can
queue them how you'd like.

Is the arm-soc development process documented somewhere? Like an FAQ, or
ANNOUNCEMENT? [1] I understand that it's a large and noisy subsystem
that warrants some additional processes of its own (beyond what I've
seen in other subsystems), but as a relative newcomer to participating
in it, I've only been able to glean a few bits of info from searching
the LKML/linux-arm-kernel archives.

If not, I'm sure I'll figure things out eventually.

Thanks,
Brian

[1] This comes close. At least it captures the history:
