As long as there's no anticipated changes in DTS that's OK (which is
why it's good to at least seek the ack from Bjorn in this case).

There's one more issue with this pull request -- it's based on
5.5-rc4. We normally don't move to later -rcs for the base once things
land (i.e. we're still at -rc2), since it just causes churn.

I'll merge this now anyway, but in the future if you're unsure what to
use as a base for your topic branches, look at our master branch to see
where it's at.
