Let me know and I can help orchestate this.Well. Whatever works. In this situation I'd stage the patches after linux-next and would merge them up after the prereq patches have been merged into mainline. Easy.All right, what the hell just happened?Christoph's patch series for the devmap & hmm rework finally made it into linux-next
We're talking about "dev_pagemap related cleanups v4", yes? I note that linux-next contains "mm: remove the HMM config option" which was present in Christoph's v3 series but wasn't present in v4. Perhaps something has gone wrong here.
sorry, it took quite a few iterations on the list to get all the reviews and tests, and figure out how to resolve some other conflicting things. So it just made it this week. Recall, this is the patch series I asked you about routing a few weeks ago, as it really exceeded the small area that hmm.git was supposed to cover. I think we are both caught off guard how big the conflict is!
I guess I was distracted - I should have taken a look to see how mergable it all was. It's a large patchset and it appears to be mainly (entirely?) code cleanups. I don't think such material would be appropriate for a late -rc7 merge even if it didn't conflict with lots of other higher priority pending functional changes and fixes! _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
