I can carry it in the x86 tree with the appropriate ACKs... which could lead to ugly merge conflicts, or we can ask the respective driver authors to take their bits... but that gives a sequencing problem (the core patchset depends on a bunch of outside trees in order to be tested.) Either way it is a late pull for 3.8 at best... however, the risk seems low so *maybe* that is acceptable. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel.
