Yes, I'll try to be more precise with my commits in the future.  I was
playing catch-up with a bunch of commits in our internal tree, which
uses Perforce.  The change migration process doesn't lend itself to
pulling individual commits out of Perforce and into git, and I also
worried about spamming LKML with dozens of small patches for the tile
architecture, which after all hasn't even been pulled into Linus's tree
yet.  And, of course, since few if any folks are actually running these
bits on their hardware yet (our hardware customers are likely all
running the sources we ship them), the bisection issue is less
critical.  But I will at least make sure to separate out cleanups and
bugfixes going forward.

Thanks!
