Different trees have their own rules, that's true. But probably it's most common to work against linux-next.

Which ever patch gets sent to list first gets merged first. If your patch doesn't apply when Greg tries to apply it then you have to redo it against staging-next (or the next day's linux-next release). You're absolutely not under any obligation to redo Adnan's patches, just send him an email to resend it to the list if you want. regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
