What's the best way to base on a fix commit that's in net for patches in net-next? Here I tried basing on a merge between them. Should I include the fix patch on my net-next branch instead? Or will net be merged into net-next at some point and I should wait for that? Thanks, David

We merge net -> net-next each Thursday afternoon (LT / Linus Time) so if the wait is for something in net then we generally ask for folks to just hold off posting until the merge. If the dependency is the other way then just post based on what's in tree and provide the conflict resolution in the cover letter.

I guess last Thursday was skipped because of Thanksgiving. Really? Ugh. I wasn't clear enough in communicating to other maintainers that I'll be out, I guess. I'll try to send another PR later today, once I caught up with all the traffic, and marge things up properly. Stay tuned.
