Hi Fu,

Do you mind if I send IORT series where new drivers/acpi/arm64 directory
would be introduced in first place ? This means your GTDT set would
depend on IORT.

I think it's reasonable as the IORT for ITS is the key device enablement
for PCI MSI. I talked to Fuwei offline and he is fine with it.
That's no problem at all, will do.

Can I do this:
(1)apply Tomasz's v8 patchset on the master branch of upstream kernel
(2)rebase my v10 on the top of Tomasz's v8
(3)git format-patch as v11, repost it

Is that OK for everyone? :-)
I do not think you need a v11 just to remove the drivers/acpi/arm64
directory creation, you need to get Daniel/Thomas review/ack on
the respective patches though, I do not see the point of churning
out another series just because drivers/acpi/arm64 is now created
in the IORT patch series. If v10 is ok you will rebase it on top of
Tomasz's series and mention the dependency in the respective pull
request.

If there is need for a v11 following Daniel/Thomas review yes,
you can proceed as above.
