Patch 1/4 has been acked now as well, so I think the remaining part of this series is ready to go.
However, I noticed that Stephen Rothwell reported some merge conflicts for arm-soc in linux-next. Quite trivial to resolve, though. Perhaps an option to consider is to send this as material for v5.10-rc1 (or maybe rc2) to avoid further conflicts during this release cycle? Just an idea..
