Alternatives:
- merge vdpa through Saeed's tree. I can ack that, we'll need to
  resolve any conflicts by merging the two trees and show the
  result to Linus so he can resolve the merge in the same way.
- extract just the necessary patches that are needed for vdpa and
  merge through my tree.
- if Saeed sends his pull today, it's likely it will be merged
  early next week. Then I can rebase and send a pull with your patches
  on top. A bit risky.
- do some tricks with build. E.g. disable build of your code,
  and enable in Saeed's tree when everything is merged together.
  Can be somewhat hard.
