I just created a branch called nand/for-gpmc-rework based on today's nand/next, but I'm still unsure how to proceed once you've rebased your work on this branch? Tony will first have to pull my immutable branch, then pull yours, and then I'll have to pull an immutable branch from the the omap-soc tree to get your changes into my nand/next branch (in case other patches modify the same files before I send my PR). Am I missing something? If I'm not, then this option looks over-complicated to me. ITOH, if we decide to let your patches go through the nand or omap-soc tree, only one immutable branch will be created, and either the nand or omap-soc maintainer (depending on who takes the patches) will have to pull it into its -next branch. I'm quite new to all this merging process, so don't hesitate to correct me if I'm wrong.
