The call op requests that the callee pass a message to the underlying HW
or device, wait for a response, and then pass back the response error code
and message to the callee. It is useful for drivers that represent some
kind of messaging or IPC channel to a remote device.

v4: Adjust misc_call() to return the response msg size on success.
v3: New patch.

Are you planning for the Tegra186 stuff to go into the upcoming release?

Simon

I'd like it to if at all possible; it's all pretty much Tegra-specific 
drivers so shouldn't cause any fallout for other platforms. The only 
exception is the fdt_translate_address() changes, which are a 
dependency, which will be built into other platforms, but there's a 
simple Boolean parameter that controls the new behaviour, so it should 
be pretty safe.

OK, sounds reasonable to me. I'll pick these up later in the week and
send a pull request. Can you bring any other dependencies in via
Tegra?

Yes, I was assuming that TomW would take everything else; it's all Tegra 
drivers.

Simon, any word on the u-boot-dm pull request? TomW is waiting for it 
before applying all the Tegra commits on top of it so he won't have to 
rebase, and he'd probably best send a Tegra pull request on Friday in 
order to make -rc2, which would be good to do. Thanks.

Yes, I'm testing u-boot-dm/testing and will send it if all is well.
