This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
misc/pvpanic: Export module FDT device table
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Export the module FDT device table to ensure the FDT compatible strings are listed in the module alias. This help the pvpanic driver can be loaded on boot automatically not only the ACPI device, but also the FDT device.
