Keep in mind that Dave and Jakub do this to help us out because we are
sometimes slow on applying patches and getting them to net. Normally
this is all fine for clear fixes.
If we move getting patches for wpan to net then we should move it
completely to that behaviour and not having a mixed setup which does
not work, or it works and hope we don't have conflicts and if we have
conflicts we need to fix them when doing the pull-request that the
next instance has no conflicts because they touched maybe the same
code area.
I do disagree on this. I think there is no need to have it fixed to one
way or another (net OR wpan). It has been working fine with this mixed
approach for quite a long time. The current issue with v1 being applied
instead of v2 is something that could have happened to us when applying
to wpan as easily.
If we are quick enough to ack/apply patches hitting the list (1-2 days)
its unlikely any of them will be applied to net. Dave and Jakub simply
help us to make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
I think a) would be the fastest way here and I just sent something.
I applied the two patches earlier today and just send out a pull request
for net with them.
