I used to have those OF patches on my tree, but I was forced to remove,
as Grant rejected the patches. After his nack, lots of dicussions about
the DT bindings started and, until last week, there were no consensus
about that (as far as I followed the discussions).

So, reluctantly, I just dropped this series from my tree, pretending
it never existed, as reverting them could cause troubles if it 
(or some version of it) got merged via Greg, Grant and/or Russell
trees.

On my head, it become too late to merge it for 3.15, as first
people must agree on the DT bindings. Also, I already closed the
media merge window, as -rc7 seems to be the last -rc.

One possible approach for this would be to merge the patches that move
the OF graph code away from drivers/media, and the corresponding
internal ABI changes early at -rc, and applying the DT binding
patches, and the staging imx-drm driver for 3.16.

Regards,
Mauro
