Re: [PATCH v6 00/11] reserved-memory regions/CMA in devicetree, again

[Grant Likely]

Hi Ben, Russell and Catalin,

I've got this series queued up, and I'd like to be ready to merge it
in the next merge window. I'm going to queue it up in linux-next. If
you have any concerns, please shout and it can be removed. I won't ask
Linus to pull it without you giving the okay.
