One more pr-tracker-bot note: going through the pull requests from the last week, I notice that this one didn't get a pr-tracker response. It looks like lkml still hates you, so your pull request email never made it to the list despite being cc'd. And thus it never makes it to the lore and pr-tracker-bot infrastructure either. Have you tried looking into why lkml has that red-hot hatred of your emails? Because it does seem to be personal - you have pissed off the email gods some way. Did you get a bounce? Linus

Did you get a bounce? No bounce, but I at least have good company in the shunned group. Mel's analysis of the impact of page-allocator randomization [1] somehow also missed lore.kernel.org, but lkml.org caught it [2]. Add Dave Hansen on the outside chance his mail scripts have caught other instances of patches sent to the list but not archived in lore.kernel.org.

Hi Linus, please pull from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm tags/libnvdimm-fixes-5.0-rc4 ...to receive a fix for namespace label support for non-Intel NVDIMMs that implement the ACPI standard label method. This has apparently never worked and could wait for v5.1. However it has enough visibility with hardware vendors [1] and distro bug trackers [2], and low enough risk that I decided it should go in for -rc4. The other fixups target the new, for v5.0, nvdimm security functionality. The larger init path fixup closes a memory leak and a potential userspace lockup due to missed notifications. These have all soaked in -next for a week with no reported issues.
