These all look good to me,

If you have a script that you can easily run on another tree,
could you send me the script or the output for this one?
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc.git/log/?h=board-remove
I'm removing a bunch of code there, and if that ends up removing
additional documented paramenters, I'd like to fold the Documentation
update into the respective patches as well.
