It does not apply to my tree.

Against which tree is this patchset ? Who is supposed to take it ?

Ok, we have the choice:
 1. split the patchset into arch/arm changes and drivers/clocksource
 2. I ack the patchset and Olof/Kevin take it
 3. Olof/Kevin ack the patchset and I take it in my tree.

This is really becoming fuzzy.

If you want a maintainer to take a patchset you have to send an email
--to him and --cc mailing list and others concerned by the patchset.
