Well, I can't take this as-is because I get conflicts in my tty tree
with the doc, and with the driver itself:

	checking file Documentation/arm64/silicon-errata.txt
	Hunk #1 FAILED at 68.
	1 out of 1 hunk FAILED
	checking file drivers/acpi/spcr.c
	checking file drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c
	Hunk #5 FAILED at 2370.
	1 out of 8 hunks FAILED

I have no idea what the driver conflict is, what branch was this made
against?

thanks,
