The big hit from using Nicolas tree will rather be that it is 2.6.35-based, while we have a lot of stuff merged for 2.6.36 and a similar pile of stuff stacked in different next trees so I will have to pull all of that out (including some extensions to frameworks we made along the way) in order to get something in shape for a 2.6.35 branch.
Note that I maintain 2 trees: the Linaro stable tree based on 2.6.35 currently, and the linaro-next tree which is intended to closely follow the latest upstream and periodically remerge a bunch of development trees. I say "remerge" because the linaro-next tree is a throw-away one as it is constantly rebased/rebuilt just like linux-next. I think that your patches would be more for the later tree.
