Yeah, the RPi people are annoying, they constantly rebase their branches so there's no way to have a stable commit. Yann posted an issue to their github: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/915.
Maybe we need to look into what they propose, apparently they have some stable branches.
I've nonetheless applied your commit, after tweaking the commit log.
(Hint: "does no more exist" isn't proper English as far as I know, you should say "does not exist anymore" I believe. Though I'm not a native English speaker, so I might be wrong.)

The stable branches (e.g. 3.18.y) don't get rebased, so should have a linear history
so perhaps we should stick to the stable 3.18 branch instead? The raspberry_dt_defconfig is based off the 3.18 branch, so why not do the same for the RPi2?

Arnout

Absolutely. I'm hoping to see some patches about this from our RPi contributors. Yann? :-)

I recently tried a Raspberry Pi 2 with the 3.19 kernel from raspberrypi2_defconfig, and it had issues mounting an ext2 rootfs (presumably due to not finding mmcblk0p2, but I didn't debug). I switched to a 3.18 kernel, and everything worked fine.
I don't mind sending a patch to switch to the 3.18 branch, but before I did so, was there anything I missed on this issue? It looks like it's been a couple of weeks since this email, and I didn't see other RPi commits.
Thanks,
Frank
