=== Highlights ===
* Posted a second iteration of the pin states patch, which tied configuration to the driver, so the driver would declare a number of configration states to be activated by name. I start to think this approach may be bad, so:
* Prepared a second alternative to pin configuration, instead of driver-declared states, we provide a set of named states in the platform data, maybe we will tie this into the device as well so devices can request pin states. Need to read feedback and iterate this patch set.
* Rebasing my development trees to v3.3-rc1
* Reviewed different patches here and there. Sent some sporadic U300 and Integrator patches.
* Helped our ALSA SoC guy play audio on the mainline kernel - it works! So now patches for the AB8500 ALSA SoC driver are in the works.
=== Plans ===
* Harvest and send patches upstream for -rc1 which is usually pretty busy. pinctrl and ux500 alike.
* dummy pinmuxes akin to dummy regulators, we need to see if this is a good idea or not.
* Prepare conference presentation for the Embedded Linux Conference.
* Drive generalization of Nomadik GPIO by using the pinctrl framework. drivers/gpio/gpio-nomadik.c
* Test the PL08x patches on the Ericsson Research PB11MPCore and submit platform data for using pl08x DMA on that platform.
* Look into other Ux500 stuff in need of mainlining... like - Ux500 clocks - the HWMON stuff.
=== Issues ===
* Ux500 mainlining having second priority.
