This doesn't affect Tejun or anyone else really, but going through
-mm tends to gum up the works. Your patches wind up not applying to
libata#upstream, in which case they get dropped and I assume Andrew
or someone will resend usable versions.
Its the only way to get testing done and get them into distributions in
time.
Not true... libata gets auto-propagated into -mm, and Andrew pulls
regularly.
I believe the point was that getting things into libata is glacial
compared with getting them into -mm. Witness the PMP patchset.
