I rebased the complete patch set against linux-next in:
    git://gitorious.org/~jak/ac100/jaks-marvin24s-kernel.git linux-next

It consists of 35 commits, and one even misses a Signed-off-by from
Marc at the moment. This will be rebased and modified accordingly,
but it should serve as a first impression of what's coming. I hope
to have the patch series cleaned up for staging tomorrow or
Saturday.
