Hi Dmitry,

Sorry for me being so damned slow.

I had to fuzz the patch so then you need to get the version I applied out
of my tree.

But I'm not going to rebase the tree so you can pull commit
9c3c9bc9cc980d8981f75109f3921576daf75723
from the GPIO tree if you like. Or I can make a tag there if
you prefer, just tell me.

I'm stacking a loooot of GPIO patches on top, so I prefer not to have
any conflicts.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
