I'm sorry, I never received Rafael's initial message. I just checked
through my mailbox and it isn't there.

The current status is that patch "i2c: Fix bus-level power management
callbacks" is currently queued in my i2c tree at:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jdelvare/linux-2.6/jdelvare-i2c/i2c-fix-bus-level-power-management-callbacks.patch
and is scheduled to be merged in 2.6.35-rc1. If this isn't OK, we can
change the plan.

Merging a core PM patch through the i2c tree would be quite confusing,
I think, and might draw even more odd dependencies. So I'd rather have
the i2c patch moved to the PM staging tree (or whatever tree the
dependent patch lives in.) Just let me know and I'll drop my copy.
