I am hoping for tglx to take it through his tree since the patch
introducing secs_to_jiffies() is in his tree, so sequencing of
dependencies would not be an issue.

But if tglx won't, we could push it out another cycle and individual
maintainers can take the patches that are applicable to their tree for
the series.

Thanks,
