What kind of dependancy? Runtime or build? Where is the patch that it depends on?

If this patch has no build dependencies on patches which are in -next, but not in Mainline then it will have to go in via the same tree that the dependencies were applied to. If the dependencies are already in Mainline, or they are not build-deps, then it should go in via the correct tree, which I believe is Sebastian's tree. > Also, I will send again this patch and device tree binding document. Either way you should do that. Mark them as RESEND instead of PATCH and apply all of the Acks you have accumulated so far. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog -- 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
