I'd like it to if at all possible; it's all pretty much Tegra-specific
drivers so shouldn't cause any fallout for other platforms. The only
exception is the fdt_translate_address() changes, which are a
dependency, which will be built into other platforms, but there's a
simple Boolean parameter that controls the new behaviour, so it should
be pretty safe.
