When you are ready, please send me a request to include your tree/branch in linux-next (usually the branch is called something like "for-next" or just "next") telling me the git URL, and the contacts I should send email to if there are conflicts/build issues with the branch. I will then fetch the branch every time I create a new linux-next release (most work days), so all you need to do is update that branch each time you are ready to publish more commits. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell
