Thanks, I have queued these up.

As I have (once again) received push-back from the ARM-SoC maintainers
relating to cleanups I will describe my reasoning for picking these up
below.

I have picked these up because they can be applied cleanly on
top of v3.17-rc1 and do not conflict with anything else that is
currently queued up for v3.18. As such I do not believe I need
to consider deferring them until v3.19.

If, on the other hand, they had conflicted with patches queued up
for v3.18 I would have been hesitant to pick them up and probably
would have asked you to defer them until v3.19. This is because
within a release cycle the ARM-SoC maintainers have a preference for
cleanups to come before other changes.

I hope the above makes sense and may help everyone to understand
a little more how I am handling cleanups in accordance with request
made by the ARM-SoC maintainers.
