The following changes since commit 8c6216d7f118a128678270824b6a1286a63863ca: Revert "ip_gre: make ipgre_tunnel_xmit() not parse network header as IP unconditionally" (2013-03-16 23:00:41 -0400) are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost.git vhost-net for you to fetch changes up to deb7cb067dabd3be625eaf5495da8bdc97377fc1: tcm_vhost: Flush vhost_work in vhost_scsi_flush() (2013-03-17 13:04:14 +0200)This is a scsi driver, I therefore don't think this pull request is for me. Please avoid such confusion in the future, and don't use branch names like "vhost-net" for SCSI driver fixes. Thanks.We are sharing quite a bit of code, so it's a common tree. There was a vhost-net patch there too but you picked it up directly so I dropped that and what's left is vhost-scsi. Typically vhost-net dominates so I'm just used to merging all vhost things through you but if you think it's wrong I can send it directly to Linus.
Just like any other "bus" or "layer" for drivers, you should really just send the networking bits my way. Now, in situations where some generic vhost infrastructure is necessary for a vhost-net specific change, that might be a situation where we can merge the infrastructure change into my tree so that the networking bits can go in too.
