Have you identified which indivudual you hope/expect to merge this into
mainline?

The code is presumably and hopefully applicable to architectures other
than ARM, yes? Can you suggest likely candidate architectures so we
can go off and bug the relevant maintainers to review it?

Sorry I missed above question in last email. Am not too sure but any
arch which has CPU local timers, interrupt controller, Floating point
co-processor etc, should be able to make use of it. So it's applicable
to any architecture, but whether they want to use it, i don't know.

As you noticed most of the ARM machine's are adapting to it.
Along with generic patch, there are couple ARM drivers adapting
to make use of it. That was the reason I was pushing this series
via Russell's tree.
