Hm, I did see that tree in MAINTAINERS, but it specifically said
"CLOCKSOURCE CORE" and it does not have any
F: drivers/clocksource/
or
F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/timer/
entries, therefore I added the files to Actions like other SoCs did...

I can easily unqueue the patches - what does submit for the clocksource
tree mean? Just CC the two maintainers on resend or anything else?
I intend to rename my branch to v4.13/drivers on Olof's feedback anyway.

Sorry,
Andreas
