The simple answer about updating to net-next frequently: it's complicated :) The long answer is that the guidance from Linus is to avoid making unnecessary merges so we fast forward wireless-next only after it's pulled to net-next. And we can't rebase wireless-next due to downstream trees Ping's rtw tree, besides rebasing public git trees is evil anyway. -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
