No. The #2 is right now brewing in linux-next and I am thinking to ask
Linus to pull it next week.

It is #3 that I am not expecting to get in 2.6.36 merge window, b/c
well, I just posted it now for review and the runway is way to short for
that.
But now re-reading my email " patches utilize the Xen-SWIOTLB library
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/7/27/246) and I don't expect them to
get in the 2.6.36 merge window." it does sound like I am refering to
Xen-SWIOTLB, which is not what I meant. Argh. Thanks for noticing it.
