Sorry, I must've missed that 2nd patch of yours. I'll test this now and
report back.
Thanks,

The MPSC drivers that use DMA need to set coherent_dma_mask to allow
dma_alloc_xxx routines to work properly. Also, the mpsc serial driver
needed to set pi->port.dev to register properly. With these fixes,
the MPSC drivers seem to work again.

The maple platform failed to load because it's firmware could not take a
link address of 0x400. A new platform type with a link address of
0x40 had to be created for the maple.

Sure. I never quite know with i2c which ones you will apply directly and
which ones you want to go through my tree :-)
Hopefully they should still be referened on patchwork, I'll dig there
and pick them up.

That said, I'm still not entirely convinced I like this usage of
cpupower, its supposed to be a normalization scale for load-balancing,
not a placement hook.
Even if you do a placement hook you'll need to address it in the load
balancing as well. Consider a single 4 thread SMT core with 4 r
