+Subject: [PATCH] aspeed: add gpio support
+
+This is an initial support for the parallel GPIO pins directly connected
+to the AHB on the Aspeed 2400/2500.
+
+This brings the functions and a shell command to manipulate the GPIO
+state. The GPIO value reading and writing work in non interrupt mode
+only.

+Subject: [PATCH] aspeed: add bmc position support
+
+There are two Nicoles in one chassis in the Tatlin hardware.
+The position is encoded by a pin, read by an MCU, and then translated
+to the BMC via GPIO pin GPIOE1.
+
+This reads the GPIO pin state and put is as a bootargs item.
