I have been purposely maintaining a hands-off attitude on the Linaro 
kernel since I've been receiving pull requests from John Rigby. Since I 
don't really follow the Linaro release cycle all that closely, I think 
its best to leave maintenance in John's capable hands. Besides, the 
stable kernel team is already buried.
