Yes and I think Tom volunteered to run that! Once it is up and going
we should be able to find everything we need there.

But until then we need to rely on patchwork and keeping our own tree
locally. My copy of these patches is at
http://git.denx.de/u-boot-simonglass.git (branch us-tegra) but it
includes all my 'patman' junk, and resolution of some patch conflicts,
etc. So really only useful for comparing. I am using it to base
further patches on, of which there are many as you know.

BTW my SPI series didn't really get a lot of comments - are you happy
with the UART switch stuff? It is an incomplete implementation since
the NS16550 buffering patch was NAKed. Mike suggested another option
we could do to get around calling pinmux code in NS16650 and Tegra
SPI, but in any case it might be dead in the water without serial
buffering. I have put it down as something to look at 'later'.

Simon
