Hi; I've applied most of this series to target-arm.next: patches 1 to 15 and 17. I've left a comment about what I think we should do about patch 16 (the bootrom). Patch 18 (the RTC i2c device) I don't have any objection to, I just didn't have time to review it now and didn't want to delay getting the new board model in until I did find that time. Since the board code doesn't instantiate the i2c device, the RTC is kind of a separate thing from the board series anyway. thanks -- PMM
