I just made available a new Linaro kernel merge result at the following location:
http://git.linaro.org/?p=linux/arm_next.git%3Ba=summary
This is the merge result from the following branches:
Linus' tree at v2.6.35 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6
Greg KH's stable branch at v2.6.35.1 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.35.y.git
RMK's "devel" branch at commit 7b70c427 (merged into mainline with commit be82ae02)
Catalin Marinas' "stable-2.6.35" branch at commit 2d73da46 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux-2.6-cm.git
Will Deacon's "for-linaro" branch at commit 7987abe4 git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-wd.git
Tony Lindgren's "omap-for-linus" branch at commit d21872b3 (merged into mainline with commit d71048e2)
Uwe Kleine-König's "arm/booting" branch has been dropped as it is now included in RMK's "devel" branch.
This has been tagged with "linaro_merge_100811" and the tag message also has the above info. This is also available through the following gitweb link:
http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=linux/arm_next.git%3Ba=tag%3Bh=linaro_merge_1...
The previous merge result is still available through the tag "linaro_merge_100716" for reference.
The Linaro freeze is imminent, and at that point a stable branch that won't be rebased anymore will be forked. The stable branch should only see bug fixes and no new features. Therefore I'd like to know if there is anything that should be added or removed from this tree before the freeze is in place. Please tell me ASAP.

Hi Nicolas,
The Linaro freeze is imminent, and at that point a stable branch that won't be rebased anymore will be forked. The stable branch should only see bug fixes and no new features. Therefore I'd like to know if there is anything that should be added or removed from this tree before the freeze is in place. Please tell me ASAP.
The only thing I can think of from my end is the hardware breakpoint patches I have:
http://www.linux-arm.org/git?p=linux-2.6-wd.git%3Ba=shortlog%3Bh=refs/heads/...
I've not merged these into my Linaro branch because I'm not happy with the amount of testing they've received [it's a bit of a catch 22 because one good way to get them tested is to merge them!].
Anyway, there is an [extremely bare] blueprint here:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/gdb-linaro/+spec/hardware-breakpoint-suppor...
which also provides a link to the relevant GDB patches. Actually, one of the objectives on that blueprint is `Backport Kernel patches' which I don't quite follow.
If you'd like these, I can merge them into my for-linaro branch, otherwise I'll continue to keep them separate.
Cheers,
Will
