It'd been nice to catch this before merging, especially since the branch had been around a while. Anyway, I applied this to a drivers/psci2 branch that builds on top of the previous one. Please use psci2 as the base for other trees, so that mainline won't regress in case they get merged before our stuff. -Olof
