The 1st three patches in this series are specific to x86. With an ack from the x86 crew (the main patch still has Ingo's ack from 16 months ago) I think they could be 3.6-rc1 cleanup candidates. The 4th patch is enabled by the first 3 -- removing pm_idle() from pm.h touches 10 architectures. That one will need a bunch of acks and post rc1 linux-next build testing to make sure it doesn't break 3.7. thanks, Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center
