Hi David,

Andrew just replied to my comment an hour ago, and I still have concerns
about the patchset. I didn't like the list_head of busses, and the 6352
family don't support the external mode. That needed to be addressed.

Why such an hurry to merge patches?
Because my backlog sucks otherwise?

I can revert, or you can ask Andrew to post follow-on fixups to
satisfy your concerns.  Just because I applied it doesn't make it
the end of the world.

And maybe I should apply patches aggressively, as this lights a fire
under everyone's butt and people review and fix things more quickly.
That has exactly the opposite effect. This makes people care less about
each other work because "it's gonna be merged in a few minutes anyway."
