Thanks, I've created the branch/tag :

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/geert/renesas-drivers.git
    branch soc-device-match
    signed tag soc-device-match-tag1

In the mean time, Ulf has applied the first two patches to mmc/next, on top
of lots of MMC work :-(

Ulf, as this is not only a dependency for Freescale/NXP (for sdhci-of-esdhc),
but also for Samsung and Renesas, would it still be possible to replace these
two commits

    8b82c17a8ae533d6 base: soc: introduce soc_device_match() interface
    6fa350172b098f0f base: soc: Check for NULL SoC device attributes

by a merge of soc-device-match-tag1?

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

                        Geert
