Hi Jim,
We've prepared more changes in order to support thunderx but changes are based at 4.2-rc5 version. To update kernel from 4.2-rc2 to 4.2-rc5 it would take huge bunch of patches. I've rebase them to rc2 fedora tree and tested with kernel you provided (build rpms and so on). No issues so far.
Would it be possible to apply them onto your kernel or I should rebase them to rc2 (which could be painfull) or other version ?

I haven't, no. I'm in Cambridge this week so my free time is a bit limited. Next week you'll have my full attention.
Have you moved to 4.2-rc3 ? If so there would be some minor conflict (apart from 4.2-rc2) which I could help to address.
Just in case - I've prepared patches for 4.2-rc2.

I ran into a couple applying the patchset, but I think this is mostly
solvable, and due to the fact that we don't have the kernel in git yet
for common patching/updates. I'll play around with it a bit more this
afternoon.
