I would suggest to not rely on this series. This is the third time this
has been tried. Each time the series was either ignored, or there were
unspecified objections along the line of "we need review this further".
I may be pessimistic, but at this point I don't think the series will
ever be applied. With that in mind, it might be better to either apply
your patch for PSCI, or the matching patch from this series.
