Got it. Thanks for the kindly remind. There's only one dependency: "arm64: Split out platform options to separate Kconfig" from Olof. > > AFAIKS, there is no dependency at all so please just base them on -rc1 I'd like to learn more to avoid future inconvenience. This means it's better to rebase on 4.2-rc, right? Another question is: could patches be based on arm-soc tree if necessary? for example: if I need the "arm64: Split out platform options to separate Kconfig" commit. > (No need to resend, I can take care of it). > > Anyway, I am fine with the series and it has been out for a while now. > I pick it up, let is set on linux-next for a while and send out a > topic PR at the end of the week.
