Since you've gone ahead and applied the whole series, please can you provide me a stable branch with the first four patches only so that I can include them in the arm64 tree? Failing that, I can create a branch for you to pull and apply the remaining patches on top. Please let me know.Coresight patches flow through Greg's tree and as such the coresight-next tree gets rebased anyway. I will remove the first 4 patches and push again. By the way do you also want to pick up patches 14 and 16 since they are concerned with "arch/arm64/Kconfig" or should I keep them?I'll take the first 4 and put them on a stable branch, which you can choose to pull if you like (but please don't rebase it or we'll end up with duplicate commits). The rest of the patches, including the later Kconfig changes, are yours but I doubt they'll apply cleanly without the initial changes. Are you sure Greg rebases everything? That sounds a bit weird to me, as it means it's impossible to share branches with other trees. How do you usually handle this situation?
No, I never rebase my trees. For coresight patches I take them as emailed patches due to previous history requiring me to review them all myself. If this is an issue here, I can always take a pull request as long as you all don't want my review :) thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
