I'm perfectly happy to wait for the next merge window.. or even delay it
a bit til we can make sure ARM stuff is in, then memblock is updated to
also update ARM.

The latest failure is a bit of a concern... it shows that sh and
microblaze have not tested the series when I asked them to a while back
then, but then, I suppose everybody is short on time.

In any case, I'll fixup those glitches in my memblock branch, and we can
look at the ARM situation then and decide what to do.

Cheers,
Ben.
