Just applied it locally and started a travis build [1] for your patch
series.

Unfortunately it breaks [2] sheevaplug board (size limit).

Added Prafulla to cc may he can give a hint, if we can remove something?

@Prafulla: This board drops a lot of build warnings [3] ... is it used
            anymore? Do you plan to update to DM support? Or should we
            remove this board?
bye,
Heiko
