Hi,
I am not seeing those patches in tip.git tree as of today.
What is still wrong with those patches? I think they
are good for providing the basic enablement for HSW.

There were still problems with them so they didn't make it
into v3.9 - now that the development window is open I'll check
the latest iteration (v9), in a couple of days.

Ok, then. We need to move forward with HSW now.
Thanks.
