changelog nit: and why do you want/need the notification to bubble
through? IOW, you're explaining "what" the patch does, but not "why",
which typically includes a summary of the problem being solved. (I know
the background from the other series, but other reviewers may not know
the history there.)
Also, please post these to linux-arm-kernel.
Thanks,
Kevin
