The patch series is based on Tony's current tree.  It is not intended to 
be applied as-is.  The series is meant for people working on DSPBridge to 
know what the expectations are of the OMAP maintainers, and also to give 
them a quick way forward to getting their code to compile again.

I doubt that that's the reason, but you'd have to ask Tony about the 
details.  But I'd NACK it due to the PRM/CM function pointers.  As I 
mentioned in the previous messages, no driver should be touching PRM/CM 
bits directly.
