I don't complain the merge window procedure. Even though follow the normal procedure, send the patches and reviewed before the merge windows. it's not included at this merge window. Our team tries to include some features but will wait next merge window. Frankly I'm not sure our implementation can be merged since he focus on their the latest chip but I want to cover the existing chips even though it's not released outside. As the maintainer, he merged his features freely but others can't get the chance if the implementation is not fit his taste or company policy. Look at the example. [PATCH v2 0/4] ARM: S5P: Support gpio interrupts http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=127840208508625&w=2 We need the gpio interrupt support but he refused it since it used too many irq. Actually his board don't use this features. "It is because there are too many gpio interrupts and having support of all of them is unnecessary as realistically only few of them maybe used." And current kernel don't support the sparse irq feature. then it's reasonable to merge it first and revise it later. Another why FIMC support is missing? we modified it as his requested and send it properly. [PATCH v3 3/8] ARM: Samsung: Add platform definitions and helpers for http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=127990218813931&w=2 [PATCH v3 1/8] ARM: Samsung: Add register definitions for Samsung S5P http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=127990218613922&w=2 I want to listen other maintainers opinions.
