This patch still has checkpatch problems:

ERROR: Use of const init definition must use __initconst
#166: FILE: arch/arm/mach-hi3xxx/hi3xxx.c:51:
+static const char *hi3xxx_compat[] __initdata = {

I know you're frustrated that it's taken a long time to get this stuff
merged, but these are the kinds of mistakes that make us have to take a
*very* close look at every detail, which greatly slows down the process.

I'll fix this up locally, but please be sure to run checkpatch on your
patches before submitting.

Also not a major deal, but typically the full changelog history goes
after the '---' since in most cases, it's not relevant to the permanent
git history.
