There's three subsystems of drivers involved: input, pcmcia and usb.
The usb ones have been acked by Alan Stern.  I'm not expecting any
reaction to the pcmcia ones, so that just leaves the input ones.

You're right that there are follow on patches - the stack looks like
this at the moment:

 ARM: sa1111: map interrupt numbers through irqdomain
 ARM: sa1111: use an irqdomain for SA1111 interrupts
 ARM: sa1111: remove some redundant definitions
 ARM: sa1111: remove special sa1111 mmio accessors
 ARM: sa1111: remove legacy suspend/resume methods
 ARM: sa1111: remove legacy shutdown method
 usb: ohci-sa1111: remove special sa1111 mmio accessors
 usb: ohci-sa1111: convert shutdown method to native device_driver
 usb: ohci-sa1111: use sa1111_get_irq() to obtain IRQ resources
 pcmcia: sa1111: remove special sa1111 mmio accessors
 pcmcia: sa1111: use sa1111_get_irq() to obtain IRQ resources
 Input: sa1111ps2 - extend test delay
 Input: sa1111ps2 - remove special sa1111 mmio accessors
 Input: sa1111ps2 - use sa1111_get_irq() to obtain IRQ resources

There's no great rush for this stuff, it's already been quite some time
since the patches were originally created, so waiting another cycle for
the removal and the irqdomain conversion patches doesn't matter much.
