Yes, Andrew Lunn is working on adding common clock support to
plat-orion, which mach-kirkwood depends on.  So, I'm holding off on
changes to drivers which get passed tclk.  Once Andrew's clock code is
up, then I'll add fdt support to it and re-introduce those driver
changes.

clock gating is a separate issue that is further down the road.

Basically, we're trying to avoid merge conflicts.  :-)

The following patches should be fine to merge into stable (for 3.4):

af42511 ARM: orion: spi: remove enable_clock_fix which is not used
d93b2ca ARM: Kirkwood: Remove tclk from kirkwood_asoc_platform_data.
2bb9207 ARM: kirkwood: fdt: use mrvl ticker symbol
ec0ec68 ARM: kirkwood: fdt: absorb kirkwood_init()
...
b5c25c3 ARM: kirkwood: rtc-mv devicetree bindings
5e40593 ARM: kirkwood: use devicetree for rtc-mv
...

I'm still working on the interrupt controller and dma.  orion-ehci,
mv_cesa and sata_mv depend on one or both of those to work.

thx,

Jason.
