Re: [PATCH v9 0/9] acpi, clocksource: add GTDT driver and GTDT support in arm_arch_timer

[Tomasz Nowicki <tn@semihalf.com>]

Hi Fu,

Are you planing to respin the series based on v4.8-rc1 ? My IORT patches 
depend on this series since they will end up in the same drivers/acpi/arm64/

I think patches are in good shape so we need to enquire who is going to 
pull it in ?

Thanks,
Tomasz
