Looking at Linus' branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl.git/commit/?h=fixes&id=ba714a9c1dea85e0bf2899d02dfeb9c70040427c patch isn't tagged for stable. Should it be? It certainly is an improvement of the situation. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. Good mailing practices for 400: avoid top-posting and trim the reply.
