All,

I am going to go ahead and push patches #1 - #3, given that they are
reviewed by Ray, and that we have other work that depends on it, for
Marvell and AMD Seattle

As far as the remaining patches are concerned: only patch #4 needs a
R-b from Ray, patch #5 is good to go but depends on #4

Thanks,
Ard.
