This v4 patch did not apply because arche-apb-ctrl.c and arche-platform.c were removed by commit 2f75b2eac999. The fw-core.c changes from my earlier v1 patch present in staging/staging-next. Only the change to uart.c remains. Should i send a v5 containing only the remaining change in uart.c? Also, should i keep Alex Elder's Reviewed-by tag in v5?
