Tomi,

I'm not sure if I am the right person to decide whether my patch should 
be accepted or not and what tree it should be applied to, but if you are 
willing to take it than I'm happy.

BTW, could you also consider taking my other long waiting patch that 
touches drivers/video/omap: http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/66649/ ?

Thanks,
Janusz
