I could go either way on some of the error path changes. > Yes, these others are minor items that have been submitted by people (hch, roland, jesper, danc) who have been reviewing target code since it was merged for .38-rc1. Considering how minor these are I would prefer to have these merged, than deferring for-39. If not, then I will need to respin tree w/o their cleanups if what you prefer to be sent to Linus for-38, there are 3 other bugfix patches in the upstream LIO tree that I have been saving for-38-rc5 since for-38-rc4 was cut(considering the two outstanding series). I would like to have these included as well. Do you want me to send them all to the linux-scsi list again...? --nab > James > > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
