It is obvious that you haven't even looked at it or you would've seen my
SoB. :(
I am confident that I did the rebasing of your series right, and I
pointed out that your series was better than Blue's latest before it
vanished.
I am not confident that Blue's original conversion was fully correct,
but since it worked and had your SoB I didn't have to worry. ;)
Also a reminder that the mpc8544ds patch that you have now pushed to
ppc-next is affected by qom-next. Which is my main issue: I don't want
to see conflicting PULLs for qom-next and ppc-next intermixed with Blue
pushing his own series. If you and Blue coordinate who of you takes care
of rebasing your respective series, I don't mind at all whose SoB the
series carries.

P.S. Don't understand what is not supposed to be crucial here? I do see
a working qemu.git master branch and progress with merging QOM into
qemu.git as crucial. Whereas pulling logging workarounds into ppc-next
is not crucial at all and could be done by Anthony/Blue just as well.
