I'm happy to prepare a branch that could be pulled from. In fact,
here's a branch with fixes for issues pointed out by the review that
could be pulled from:

  git pull https://github.com/hackerspace/olpc-xo175-linux lr/olpc-xo175-battery-for-v5.1

What do really not understand is how does this help. This is probably
just my unfamiliarity with the process; but perhaps you could help me
get less unfamiliar. Would it somehow help with a potential (though
unlikely) conflict resolution? Would an Ack from x86 crowd serve as an
altenative way off making sure things in their tree won't conflict with
this one?
