What? That's unacceptable, the last resort is usually to send the
patches to Andrew Morton (whether fair or not) when nothing gets
applied.
In this case I would however encourage the MIPS maintainer to
simply queue this stuff in the MIPS tree as blocking his arch work
if not merged, Ralf would you consider just queueing this?
I do not think the other Linus would mind.
