Yeah, looks like the discussion happened the first day I was on
vacation and I missed the thread in the backlog. :(

Looks like all the outstanding issues are with the SMP support. How
about you send a patch that removes/stubs those portions? It won't be
a pure revert since as mentioned in the thread SMP was combined with
platform support, but that's OK.

That way the basic platform stuff can still go in for 3.17, and we can
re-queue the SMP pieces for 3.18 once things are sorted out.
