Yes, I think that looks fine, thanks.

Thanks for fixing up the documentation for me too.

BTW, do you know which commits you're planning on you're planning on
sending to mainline during the next merge window? If it includes these
two patches, I may be able to convert Tegra over to using the new pinctrl
driver in 3.3. And is your for-next branch stable (i.e. never rebased)
so that the arm-soc tree can use it as a dependency for my patches?
