Gads, these are large patch sets. At least these are (almost for trusty
and completely for utopic) self contained in the xgene code so regression
potential for any other platform is limited. Overall the non-xgene code
looks pretty safe.
In your trusty stack you have (at least) this commit which is marked as a
cherry-pick but lists conflicts, those should be 'backported from <sha>'
for clarity:

dtb: Add SGMII based 1GbE node to APM X-Gene SoC device tree
There look to be similar ones in both trees.
Overall they seem to be large, but well contained so I would be inclined
to take them, with those commits fixed up.
