What do you expect we'll do with this series?
If you expect it to be set to Awaiting Upstream - could you make sure
that the cover letter has "mlx5-next" in the subject? That will makes
it easier to automate in patchwork.
The relevant patches have mlx5-next in their topic.
Should the cover letter as well?
What about other non-IFC patches, keep them with net-next?
If you expect the series to be applied / merged - LMK, I can try
to explain why that's impossible..
The motivation is to avoid potential conflicts with rdma trees.
AFAIK this is the agreed practice and is being followed for some time...
If not, what's the suggested procedure then?
How do you suggest getting these IFC changes to both net and rdma trees?
