Okay, in this case, that's pretty much what I did from the beginning,
except the immutable branch was provided by Roger (based on 4.6-rc1).
Thanks for this detailed explanation, I'll try to remember that when
I'll need to provide an immutable branch for another subsystem.

Roger, my request remains, could you check/test my conflict resolution
(branch nand/next-with-gpmc-rework)?

Thanks,

Boris
