If that's the case then Ralf's mips-queue tree isn't in linux-next :( > If it makes it easier to apply, I could split this one in a mips and in a > 8250 patch? That's a hard call without knowing what's going on in mipsworld. If these patches applied to current mainline we could do it all as one patch and, with suitable acks, slap it into 2.6.32. Are these fixes also appropriate to 2.6.31.x and earlier? If so, that's another reason to prepare the patches against current mainline and just trample over the mips devel queue.
