Hi Oliver,

Just a polite nudge on this: I was originally hoping to get these into 6.3 since I thought they were fairly uncontroversial and clearly fixing bugs. What are my
chances?

Yes, your changes are indeed uncontroversial :) At least for me, fixes to selftests take a strictly lower priority than fixes to the kernel outside of a merge window. AFAICT, only LPA systems are affected by the changes here and
I'm not aware of any of those out in the wild.

Agreed. My usual take on fixing tests is that unless the test has been
broken in the current cycle, we can safely delay merging the fix until
the following cycle.

And yes, LPA-capable HW is essentially vapourware at this stage.


So, unless there is a burning issue, I'd like to defer these patches to the
6.4 merge window. Nonetheless, it all looks good to me:

Thanks for that. I'll start queuing 6.4 material once I'm back to my
usual time zone, beginning of next week.

Cheers,

        M.
