Hi Linus,

Please pull Blackfin architecture updates from:

master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cooloney/blackfin-2.6.git/ master

Bug fixing, code cleanup, anomaly handling update and GPIO API update.

serial, SPI, EMAC and RTC driver updating.

Bernd Schmidt (3):
Blackfin arch: fix bug which unaligns the init thread's stack and causes the current macro to fail.
Blackfin arch: Initialize the exception vectors early in the boot process
Blackfin arch: Load P0 before storing through it

Bryan Wu (5):
Blackfin arch: fix a compiling warning about dma-mapping
Blackfin arch: bug fixing, add missing BF533_FAMILY GPIO_PFx definition
Blackfin arch: add BF54x I2C/TWI TWI0 driver support
Blackfin SPI driver: Initial supporting BF54x in SPI driver
Blackfin SPI driver update:

Michael Hennerich (14):
Blackfin arch: store labels so we later know who allocated GPIO/Peripheral resources
Blackfin arch: add peripheral resource allocation support
Blackfin arch: Add label to call new GPIO API
Blackfin arch: fix PORT_J BUG for BF537/6 EMAC driver
Blackfin arch: Finalize the generic gpio support - add gpio_to_irq and irq_to_gpio
Blackfin arch: Advertise GENERIC_GPIO and remove duplicated GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY
Blackfin arch: add error message when IRQ no available
Blackfin arch: Add PORT_J.High (needed for BF548-EZkit Touchscreen interrupts) - remove PORT_C.H
Blackfin arch: add missing gpio error handling to make sure we roll back requests in case one fails
Blackfin Ethernet MAC driver: fix bug Report returned -ENOMEM upwards (in case L1/uncached memory alloc fails)

Two suggestions:

1) I know it's a quite minor -- and OK -- change, but please do CC relevant subsystem maintainers when you update the drivers (like net drivers -> me).

2) Including a patch for review would be useful. I use the attached script to generate the pull request emails that go to Linus. Others, like Greg KH, post individual patches for review before sending upstream -- but I think the latter is probably a bit much for blackfin.

Cheers!

Jeff
