Yeah, it's OK -- I spotted that pull request later as well. It's not a big deal in most specific instances, I'd say. It's just in aggregate it becomes a bother. So, just see this as a public reminder since we've seen it creep into other driver trees a bit more lately. Mistakes will still happen but try to keep it down. And for those who submit patches, feel free to point out in the patch that you don't expect the driver/subsystem maintainer to apply it to help them out. -Olof -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
