Re: [GIT PATCHES FOR v3.6] Samsung media driver fixes

Hello
I have had similar problems too. We need badly find out better procedures for patch handling. Something like parches are updated about once per week to the master. I have found I lose quite much time rebasing and res-sending stuff all the time.

What I propose:
1) module maintainers sends all patches to the ML with some tag marking it will pull requested later. I used lately [PATCH RFC] 2) module maintainer will pick up all the "random" patches and pull request those. There is no way to mark patch as handled in patchwork....
3) PULL request are handled more often, like during one week or maximum two

regards
Antti

It's been almost 6 weeks since I sent this pull request, now Linus

I have been waiting with all patches for 3.7 until those get merged.
Now it seems even too late for all these 3.7 patches. I cannot say
I'm very happy about this situation. It's rather disappointing it
takes so long for -rc patches to make it upstream, especially that
not all of them are supposed to be allowed during late -rc periods.
I wouldn't bother writing this email but AFAIR it's not the first
time my -rc patches got missed.

Is there anything I could do to improve this situation ?
