Hi Dinh,

Thanks for putting these patches together. The problem I see with these
is that we have multiple conflicts between my changes and the other
patches that went into the netdev tree.

Originally, the idea was that David Miller gave his Ack to have
the patches merged through arm-soc, but I think that was a mistake,
and they should have been treated like the other patches for
the same driver, i.e. put the driver and binding changes into
netdev, and the dt changes into arm-soc.

If I apply your patches on top of the next/drivers branch, we get
conflicts for a handful of files, and get Linus to resolve them.
I tried applying my patch on Sunday, but backed it out because 
of this.

My preferred solution at this point would be to revert the driver
addition in the arm-soc tree and have David put the new version
in, but I don't know if he still takes patches like that for 3.15.
