[ACTIVITY] December 19 to 22, and January 3 to 6

[Nicolas Pitre]

== Patch Review ==

* Review of the ARM JIT compiler for packet filters from Mircea Gherzan.

== Upstream Contributions ==

* Integrated comments and review tags to the arch_idle() removal patch series
in preparation for RMK to pull.  Had to redo it again because of a snafu
with some other Samsung patches this ended up depending on.
 
* Sent shmobile fix for the vmalloc series to RMK.

* Re-updated my early boot code register assignment rework onto mainline
as requested by RMK.

* Started studying the big.LITTLE switcher.

== Linaro Kernel Maintenance ==

* Nothing much on that front, beside some discussions with Alexey
who is going to take care of the Linaro kernel from now on.
