Aren't you maintainer of the platform? This means I should take care of
this patch?
Ah, this will be picked up by Kevin or Jerome? So this tag means only
Reviewer's statement of oversight, right?
Of course I'll pick it.
So that's confusing to see Review which does not mean review, but
maintainer pick...
Reviewed-by means reviewed, there's no confusion here, the significance
is clearly documented on https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html
Reviewed-by means, I should take your tag and add to v2 or the
maintainer will add it when picking up.
Reviewed-by means reviewed, fully reviewed patches are ready to
be picked unless a change is asked by a reviewer.
Decision to pick or not a patch does not depend on any tags, but
is the sole decision of the maintainer adding it's Signed-off-by.
Then why giving review tag and not notifying about the pick, while the
pick actually happens? This is confusing. When the maintainer, which is
supposed to pick patch, gives reviewed it means always the same as
acked, so the patch is expected to go other way. Not through that
maintainer's tree.
If you just apply it, say you apply it.
This last reply goes beyond acceptability on my side, this thread
went too far and I'll stop replying further after this.
If your goal was to kindly ask me to use Acked-by to notify you I'll
pick the patch in the future, while this "rule" is only implicit,
the actual form is far from it.
Concerning this patch, since I already sent the ARM64 DT PR for v6.2,
and I usually don't take new changes except urgent ones after rc6, I'll
pick this patch and "20221125144120.476933-1-krzysztof.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxx"
after the next merge window and you'll be notified as I always do.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
