Oh my. Kind of embarrassing to forget one of the maintainers in all
the discussions which tree this patch set should go through. Even
though I didn't much of the code, my sign-off is there, and I should
have made sure that you are on the Cc: list. Sorry for that, and I
owe you a beer or two if we ever meet in person.

Hope you are ok with the changes - the patch set already missed the
last commit window because of the which-tree-to-use issue, and it
would be sad to miss another one. And Jean is really waiting for it
to go in to be able to push some related patches which need the gpio driver.

Thanks,
Guenter
