Applied, thanks.

I've modified the commit message before applying. For future reference,
when dealing with bug fixes, you should quote the commit that either
introduced or exposed the bug by SHA1 id and patch title. This is what I
wrote:

This patch is to the fix the recent runtime bug in kernel reported by 
<[email protected]>. The bug was exposed by commit b951f9dc,
"Enabling OF selftest to run without machine's devicetree" and is
exposed when CONFIG_OF_SELFTEST is enabled and CONFIG_SYSFS is
disabled.
