Sorry -- this applies to the arago-project linux-omap3 tree:

git://arago-project.org/git/projects/linux-omap3.git
http://arago-project.org/git/projects/linux-omap3.git

The arago-project site doesn't appear to host its own mailing lists 
(though it does contain links to yocto lists.) I'm having a hard time 
tracking down the right mailing list for this patch, and others like it.

best,
Graeme
