Personally I think the removal and addition of new driver could do in
a single shot in meta-fsl-arm-extra (so you'd still keep two patches
to apply but both here).

The subject of internal patch is confusing as it is not for
meta-fsl-arm-extra ;-)

One thing I noticed in this serie is that you didn't export the
patches with the order (PATCH X/Y) which is important so we know the
order to apply them.
