Not sure what you intend for the bnxt changes, since they depend on the PCI core changes. I'm happy to merge them via PCI, given acks from Michael and an overall network maintainer. Alternatively they could wait another cycle, or I could make an immutable branch, although I prefer to preserve the option to update or remove things until the merge window. Thanks very much; this looks like nice work! Bjorn

I guess the most critical point is to avoid complex conflict at merge window time. My understanding it that the conventional way to avoid such issue would be sharing a stable branch somewhere with this change on top which both the netdev and the PCI tree could pull from.

Given the ongoing discussion about the bnxt_en patches, I dropped those, so the PCI tree pci/tph branch now contains only these: e045e5c1c706 ("PCI/TPH: Add TPH documentation") d2e8a34876ce ("PCI/TPH: Add Steering Tag support") f69767a1ada3 ("PCI: Add TLP Processing Hints (TPH) support") This is headed for v6.13, but the branch should not be considered immutable, and it may be merged during the merge window either before or after the netdev tree.
