It means finding some way to manually attach a change log to each patch I send out, which will be very time consuming. I'd rather not send patches out than jump through hoops like that, especially when the reason is that the previous version was ignored. > b) in June, you said you were going to roll a new version with the > common OF bits extracted. it's nice to know at the outset that this > has/hasn't happened Now if you were following the rest of it, rather than just random parts that suited you, you'd have noticed that I posted the new version, but that caused more issues, so I publically said I was reverting back to the original version. > Also, prefacing the subject with [PATCH v2] or [PATCH RESEND] lets me > know there is prior history with the change.

Yea, I'm very bad at changing the subject line in that way, and I'm getting worse at it.

No, adding the of_node_put() there without the other changes means that the OF layer can drop the "port" device node, kfree() it, and reallocate it as a different device node - which means that we can end up matching some random other device rather than the intended one. Hence, it is _fundamentally_ a part of this patch and isn't an independent change. -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arm-msm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
