Our patches are based on last mdadm commit (which is mdadm-4.2 ). IMO you should try to apply them first on latest master and later cherry-pick/ rebase them on top of your testing branch. This should automatically resolve most of conflicts. Could you try that? This is hard to follow all patches on list (especially that we cannot determine in which order they will be applied). Preparing patches for you testing branch (which could be changed in any moment), IMO is not a good solution. I really appreciate the work you put to enable upstream testing. If you need some help, let me know. Thanks, Mariusz
