I'm afraid this was merged in Russell's tree already:
http://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/cgit/linux-arm.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=3f599875e5202986b350618a617527ab441bf206

Still, it might be useful to make another patch on top with your
comments!

I agree, but I thought it would be consistent with the way
system_serial_high/low are exported. I'm not sure this was ever needed
either, but generally, I guess it makes sense to export parameters that
are passed to the kernel (it was through ATAGs before, now it's through
device-tree, but the logic remains the same).

Makes sense.
