In the past when there's been dependencies like this, what we've done is: Someone, usually Jakub, sets up a branch with the net bits only. Both the io_uring tree and netdev-next pulls that in. With that, then the io_uring tree can apply the io_uring specific patches on top. And either side can send a pull, won't impact the other tree. I like that way of doing it, as it keeps things separate, yet still easy to deal with for the side that needs further work/patches on top. -- Jens Axboe
