Since one of the build dependencies is the GPIO rework that already needed to be pushed from 2.6.40 to 2.6.41 due to shortage of review power for drivers/gpio, and since I cannot merge the updates to the current GPIO driver in arch/arm/plat-nomadik/gpio.c due to the current ban on anything that grows arch/arm/* we will likely have to postpone its merging to staging to 2.6.42. Basically this driver has ended up in cross-subsystem dependency hell :-) But worse things have happened, and these are special times, so let's let it rest for a while.
