I've applied the first 13 patches, except for patch 3, as that did not apply, to my tree, thanks. greg k-h

Once 0-day passes, you can pull from my staging-testing branch from staging.git on git.kernel.org if you want. Give it 24 hours to pass before it hits that location. Do you need a tag to pull from? thanks, greg k-h

Why do you want/need this? Having these changes in your tree is good, but what about other coding style cleanups that I will end up applying over time before the 5.12-rc1 merge window opens? Are you wanting to take the moved driver in your tree, or something else? Traditionally moving drivers out of staging can be done 2 ways: - all happens in the staging tree, I take an ack from the subsystem maintainer that this is ok to do. - A new driver enters the "real" subsystem tree, and then I delete the driver in the staging tree. This doesn't preserve history as well (not at all), but can be easier for trees that move quickly (like networking.) Which ever works for you is fine with me, but relying on the code to stay "not touched" in my tree after you pull it almost never happens due to the number of drive-by coding style cleanups that end up in the staging tree every week. thanks, greg k-h

I would have expected the whole set to be merged as a set into a single tree, placed on an immutable branch and a pull-request to be sent out for the other maintainers to pull from (if they so wished). This would ensure development could continue on any/all of the affected drivers/files. If it's not too late, I'd be more than happy to facilitate.

Given these patches are already in my public tree, that might be a bit harder, why the huge work for this? Worst case, I just keep all of the patches that do not actually move the code in my tree, and then things can move after 5.12-rc1. thanks, greg k-h

I want to apply the regulator driver so I stop being sent this patch series which will help keep my backlog more manageable. > Traditionally moving drivers out of staging can be done 2 ways: > - all happens in the staging tree, I take an ack from the > subsystem maintainer that this is ok to do. > - A new driver enters the "real" subsystem tree, and then I > delete the driver in the staging tree.

The whole reason the driver is in the staging tree is that Mauro has a requirement to do things in a way that preserves history and so won't send any non-incremental patches. > Which ever works for you is fine with me, but relying on the code to > stay "not touched" in my tree after you pull it almost never happens due > to the number of drive-by coding style cleanups that end up in the > staging tree every week. I'm sure someone can work out the conflicts if they're going to happen.

Ok, should we wait until after 5.12-rc1 is out then? thanks, greg k-h

Ah, turns out I actually need up to patch 14 anyway which updates the MFD bits so may as well leave things for now and work out what to do once that's reviewed.

Ok. I'll rebase the remaining patches on the top of staging-testing branch. > On Wed, Jan 27, 2021 at 10:08:16AM +0000, Lee Jones wrote: > > On Wed, 27 Jan 2021, Greg Kroah-Hartman wrote: > > > > > On Tue, Jan 26, 2021 at 06:11:24PM +0000, Mark Brown wrote: > > > > On Tue, Jan 26, 2021 at 07:02:39PM +0100, Greg Kroah-Hartman wrote: > > > > > On Tue, Jan 26, 2021 at 05:57:52PM +0000, Mark Brown wrote: > > > > > > > > > > Is there a branch we can pull from? > > > > > > > > > Once 0-day passes, you can pull from my staging-testing branch from > > > > > staging.git on git.kernel.org if you want.

From my side, I can re-submit the move patches and the DTS ones to be applied after 5.12-rc1, if this would be the preferred way. Thanks, Mauro
