Firstly, the MFD main branch is not immutable. Secondly, you cannot simply pull a patch in from another tree. All of the patches before it and your local base will be pulled in too. This is why we create purposely created immutable branches which *only* contain the patches required by other repos. > > Which also means all changes to this > > file due for v4.15 would have to come in via the MFD tree too. > > > > This is sub optimal IMHO.

There are no valid reason to create an IB for this case. -- Lee Jones Linaro STMicroelectronics Landing Team Lead Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog
