This is not a cross tree merge branch or OMAP patch dumping area.

Everything is just carrying on as before except the upstream management
effort is being divided between Mark and I. i.e. I'll manage the TI/OMAP
based patches, Mark will manage the rest.

Patch submitters should not notice any difference as both trees are
based on Takashi's ASoC branch and are regularly kept up to date.

Any patches that are likely to cause merge pain will still go via the
best route (as the currently do now) and with the appropriate Ack's.
