A few notes on those patches:

1) Please CC linaro-dev next time so other people are aware of what you 
   did, what you sent me, etc.  I've added it to this reply.  This way 
   at least if nothing happens with your patches it's easier to put the 
   blame on me.  :-)

2) Your cover message contains this in plain sight in the diffstat part:

    mode change 100644 => 100755 arch/arm/mach-omap2/voltage.c
    mode change 100644 => 100755 arch/arm/plat-omap/cpu-omap.c

   This is clearly wrong to flag .c files as executables, so you should 
   take care to fix that and understand why this happened in the first 
   place.  Incidentally this mode change does not appear in any of your 
   patches.

3) All your patches were numbered, except for:
   V4-OMAP3-PM-Set-clear-T2-bit-for-Smartreflex-on-TWL.patch
   Since I'm sure you know better than I do where that patch should be 
   applied in the series (if at all) you should rename it appropriately, 
   or at least let me know in which order to apply it (I initially 
   applied it last based on the date recorded in the patch but that 
   didn't work out).

4) This patch is a bit thin on explanation:

        [PATCH 08/13] [PM WIP OMAP] OMAP3: cpufreq driver changes for DVFS 
support
        
        Changes in the omap cpufreq driver for DVFS support.
        
        Signed-off-by: Vishwanath BS <vishwanath...@ti.com>

   What are those changes?  It is not obvious to me looking at the 
   patch.  All the other patches are sufficiently documented.

I've applied them to the linaro-2.6.37 branch.  Please note that the 
11.05 Linaro release will be based on a 2.6.38 branch I'm about to 
create.  Can you tell me what is the likelyhood for those patches to be 
merged upstream for the next merge window?


Nicolas
