Well l-o tree is short for the linux-omap tree. Then I have various
queues of stuff going into the mainline kernel:

omap-fixes
omap-upstream
omap1-upstream
omap2-upstream
omap3-upstream
...

Out of these queues omap-fixes will be sent out as needed during the
-rc cycle, while omap*-upstream queues are stuff for the next merge
window.

These branches show up at the git web interface at the bottom:

Not that many patches in these queues right now, btw.

Tony
