OK, that's fine. This patch can actually be taken independently, as this entry will just get dropped, until the MTD patch gets merged. In that case: Acked-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@xxxxxxxxx> This will make sure we get immediate defconfig build coverage as soon as the CONFIG_BCM63XX dependency is relaxed in drivers/mtd/. > I leave to you and Ralf to resolve how you want to pick up patches in > this series and resolve the merge. I think Ralf is now taking care of un-breaking the build, and I'll review Simon's MTD patches soon, I expect. > > > > http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2015-December/064380.html Thanks, Brian
