Thanks for writing this, this is something which I wanted to have
for a while now :)

Code wise this looks good to me:

Acked-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede at redhat.com>

I wonder who should pick this patch up though, Tom can you pick
this up ?

Siarhei can you respin the sunxi patch for this using the address
I suggested in my other mail ?

Regards,

Hans
