For the sake of bitsec, these 5 patches need to be one.

For the sake of bitsec, at least patches #7 and #8 need to be one patch.
That said, if I apply the series and then check out the commit at patch
#7, you need to all mxs-dma client drivers, mxs-mmc, gpmi do not break.

Please try to make these subject prefix consistent with the existing
ones in the tree.  You can get them from 'git log' output.  For example
"mxs-dma: ..." is better than "MXS-DMA : ...".
