Patch 5 of the series was picked up by the net-next tree a few weeks back and is in 6.13-rc1. Do you need anything else to pick up this single patch in the appropriate scsi tree? I'll separately pursue getting Patches 1 thru 3 of the series picked up by the Hyper-V tree. There's no interdependency between the patches in the series, so they can each go separately.
