I'm on the fence about this. Your patches were some of the first ones that went into the 5.3 tree. So I'd have to rebase pretty much the whole 5.3 queue. Whereas merging your updates leaves a sequence of 100+ commits that could lead to bisection problems in the future. I'm particularly worried about ipr and lpfc but all these drivers are actively used. As much as I like to see all drivers, without exception, use the sg iterators, it would have been nice to have a smoother transition. -- Martin K. Petersen Oracle Linux Engineering
