So through which tree did this end up in -next? Apparently Nicolas committed 9520b1a1b5f7a348 ("ARM: head-common.S: speed up startup code") himself, and then asked me to send the fix for that commit to Russell anyway? The commit above is actually in Russell's git://git.armlinux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm.git#for-next. Russell, you did merge it yourself into for-next in commit 476242482bdee72b ("Merge branch 'xip_zdata' of http://git.linaro.org/people/nicolas.pitre/linux into devel-testing"). My patch applies fine against your for-next branch. So I fail to see why you can't take this patch? Thanks!
