I posted a patch for this (clk: Move devm_ APIs out of clkdev into HAVE_CLK) towards the end of the last release cycle and I think reposted it since and it had been sent to the patch tracker too (though I can't find any record of anything except the submission mail now). It would be *really* good to get this merged.
Note that the patch system doesn't always return error messages anymore (it used to do that reliably, but as it's now a favourite target for spammers and was creating soo much backscatter, which was then filling my mailbox with bounces... that had to change.)
Hrm, that's not ideal. It'd be nice if it were able to do something like always reply if there were patch contents, or if it found things like the KernelVersion line in there. Obviously e-mail is also not time guaranteed so deciding it's not responded (and then working out why it did that) is going to be unreliable too. I do recall seeing the patch in the database but it's not showing up any more so perhaps I was thinking of a different patch.
Who's looking after clkdev these days? Mike doesn't seem to take patches as he's expecting Russell to take them which was happening for a while but I'm not sure that's the case any more, especially given Russell's followup here. Due to the patch tracker the usual things for following up on unapplied patches don't work terribly well, it's much less likely that it's just an oversight there.
Well, in theory I'm the maintainer for clkdev and clk API, so I should take the patch...
OK, that's what I'd thought was going on - it was the fact that you'd just acked the patch rather than asked for it to go to the patch tracker or something which made me wonder if things had changed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
