You don't need to "pause" for the merge window, in some subsystem
there's mandatory pause during merge window but I find that unnecessary.
I know people on pdx86 do review during merge window so no need to wait
when working with patches related to pdx86. Just don't expect patches
get applied during the merge window or right after it (the latter tends to
be the most busiest time of cycle for me) :-).

It's more about the frequency, how often to send a series which is
relatively large. Large number of versions end up just filling inboxes
(and patchwork's pending patches list) and we don't have time to read them
all through so I suggest waiting like 3 days at minimum between versions
when the series is large or complex to give time to go through the series.

This is not a hard rule, so if there are e.g. many significant changes,
feel free to "violate" it in that case.

Exactly. I am unlikely to do much review during the merge window myself,
but I'll pick up the patchset and followup once the merge window is over,
so feel free to keep discussing and polishing it with me on CC :)

Thanks,

I think we have reached a good point with this series. We can pick up
again when you guys are ready.

I will switch gears and look a bit into msi-wmi-platform for the MSI
Claw with Armin and we can revisit this come rc1.

Let's try to get through it early in 6.16 so that Luke can also do
what he wants to with the Ally, and let's push the oxpec move as well,
so I can get those two off my plate.

I see Ilpo and Jiri mentioned no need to pause development. But it does 
look like everything is in good state so far, and no doubt you might 
have some ideas after a few days (plus that did of helpful info asus 
dropped in my lap).

If you do anything significant and would like someone to test on a few 
variety of laptop please let me know privately and I'll do what I can.

Cheers,
Luke.
