Note that when patches are fixing hardware support it's better 
to name them accordingly. I changed all the commit titles to 
reflect this fact.

I also added a Cc: stable backporting tag to the first three 
commits, they only affect UV code and it's useful to have a 
uniform hw platform driver across the stable kernels.

Thanks,
