Re: [PATCH 00/11] Atari Ethernet/USB patch series - for upstream and debian-kernel

Thorsten,

This patch series should be suitable for inclusion in the debian/68k kernel
packages (if policy allows).

Sadly, policy allows only stuff that’s in Linus’ tree.

Fair enough. The network stuff should be possible to integrate (minus
the polled interrupt changes, perhaps). Should I split the timer D
interrupt chip patch into two (basic setup, then change to use the
polled interrupt handler), Geert?

But once it went upstream, we can just build a bleeding
edge kernel from Debian/experimental with no amount of
manual fiddling required.

It just won’t go into the stable kernel. But it’s no
regression, as the old driver was never in it either…

The old driver(s) might have been in earlier Debian kernels when
policy was otherwise. But I won't push for stable inclusion (upstream)
without need either.

Cheers,

  Michael
