Ben: Yes, you are right ;) The OMAP3 patch is ~300k and I tried to put 
this in as less patches as possible while having no patch > 40k. This 
resulted in some more or less unrelated code in one patch. Alternative 
would be to have more than the ~11 patches at the list we already have.

Mani, Steve: Any comments on this?

Ben: Any hint where in existing code it is done right to take this as 
example?

Thanks
