Cool. Chen-Yu, Marc thank you both for your hard work on this.

So what to do wrt merging this set, 2 questions:

1) Timing, v1 was posted in time for v2016.07, but given how far along
the cycle we are now I tend towards postponing this to v2016.09, note
I've no objections with this going into v2016.07 if people prefer that,
just putting the question out there.

2) Merging through which tree ?  I'm more then willing to merge this
through the sunxi tree, but it does touch some generic ARM files, so
if people prefer another merging strategy let me know.

Regards,

Hans
