This doesn't apply for me on v3.16-rc6:

  stg import: Diff does not apply cleanly

What am I missing?

I assume you intend these all to go through my tree just to keep them all
together.  The ideal rebase target for me would be v3.17-rc1.

Given the arch/powerpc parts, I'll want an ack from Ben.  I just chatted
with him about these, so I assume that's not a problem, but we should make
it explicit.
