Hi Grant, Rob,

this series has been around for quite some time now, basically unchanged
except for adding fixes for new users of the API that keep appearing
over time in different subsystems.

It would be really helpful to get this merged for v4.0. Could you still
make this happen?

Alternatively, could I please get your ack to allow this tag to be
merged into the other subsystem trees for v4.1 so that patches that
depend on it don't have to wait for yet another merge window?

The question still stands. It would be great to hear from you and maybe
get this change in at least in time for v4.1.

Let's look at the history.

10-03-2015: This reminder
03-03-2015: Pull request (ignored from what can be seen)
01-03-2015: Request from Laurent about what's happening
27-02-2015: Reminder
23-02-2015: Re-base (and version 8) due to conflicts
11-02-2015: Reminder
22-01-2015: Pull request
23-12-2014: Version 7

During that time, there's not been one peep from Rob or Grant on this.

I've only been copied on this latest pull request and a version from
March of last year which Grant nak'ed. This series did not go to
devicetree list either.

I'll take a look at the series. If there is an explanation of how
Grant's nak was addressed that would speed up my review. I'm not
applying for v4.0 though.

At what point has there been enough pestering that it's sufficient to
bypass an apparently uninterested maintainer, who can't be bothered to
say yes or no to a set of patches?

For such a key subsystem in the kernel, this is bad.  If Grant isn't
interested in performing a maintainer role, I'd be willing to pick up
that function (which'll be ironic, because that's the kind of thing
that Linaro's been doing to me over the last few years... picking
stuff off my plate without any discussion or agreement with me first,
leaving me with almost nothing to do.  No, I'm not pissed at that...
not much.)

I guess if you were to submit patches to Andrew, Andrew may take them
in this circumstance and eventually send them on to Linus.  Andrew?
