Hi Jacek, I would like to ask you about the way of sending the patch for drivers/leds/leds-mlxreg.c. This patch makes use of new "capability" register, but required commit "platform_data/mlxreg: Add capability field to core platform data" from platform for-next branch: http://git.infradead.org/linux-platform-drivers-x86.git/blobdiff/9b28aa1d0eae1be1016c8f4ba504545caff01da3..946e4e02b11889cb161b15ff4712a8ba21a50eb6:/include/linux/platform_data/mlxreg.h Is it possibly to send a patch with such dependency? Or I should wait until "platform_data/mlxreg: Add capability field to core platform data" is got to upstream?
You can send the patch with dependency. We will agree with x86 platform maintainers on how to proceed with pushing upstream (i.e. via which tree). Just make sure to cc them. -- Best regards, Jacek Anaszewski
