Is working now!

I have pushed these four branches:

letux/latest-pvr				ddk1.14.3699939 from TI/IMG
						moved to drivers/staging/pvr
						rebased on v5.0-rc7

letux/omap-pvr-soc-glue		my patch set for omap3/am335x infrastructure (clocks, resets, hwmods, DT nodes)
						rebased on v5.0-rc7

letux/omap-pvr			ddk1.9/10 from TI
						moved to drivers/staging/pvr
						adjusted to compile in-kernel
						and work together with omap-pvr-soc-glue

letux/omap-pvr-demo		some demo scripts

My plan is to git mirror those as our Letux kernel work is going on.

Generally I see it as a reservoir of ideas and patches that can be cherry-picked into our new master branch.

For example, if we agree to start work on ddk1.14.3699939 we can merge this into master.
