Right, we need to move on to device tree based booting. Most of
it should be pretty trivial configuring of the .dts file and
some .config changes so whatever issues are remaining should
be out of the way by v3.11.

There are few .dts related patches missing for USB. Roger can
point you to the current versions that Benoit should be queueing
for the -rc series.

Then for the SDIO with device tree, take a look at the following
patches:

[PATCH 0/3] WLAN support for omap4 when booted with devicetree
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.omap/97522#

The wl12xx .dts changes for pandaboard are still missing too.

Then I'll be updating these soonish:
[PATCH 0/4] Updated omap_hsmmc SDIO and remuxing patches

Those are needed for the SDIO interrupt, SDIO will work also
without those.
