Sure. I remember I saw one patch with s5p on that series[1].
Can't remember anymore if it were acked and merged directly, if
it was opted to send it via your tree (or maybe that patch was just
incomplete, and got unnoticed on that time).

It is not easy to enforce those kind of things for platform drivers,
as there's not yet a single .config file that could be used to test
all arm drivers. Hans automatic builds might be useful, if there weren't
any warns at the -git tree build at the tested archs, but there are
so many warnings that I think I never saw any such report saying that
there's no warning.

Btw, are there anyone really consistently using his reports to fix things?
