Number 3 is a large one. 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, Ingo
