Right, that was a mistake on my end. I had tested the full 98-patch
series in sequence and assumed that the driver removal would be
fine to apply separately. I'll just merge this one through the
SoC tree then. I have double-checked the pbk3710 and palmld
drivers, and those should not have a problem like this one.
I still need to send the palmld driver, as the mach-pxa series
had some unrelated issues.
