Unfortunately the topic branch approach is problematic for this series, because we already have changes to opal.h in powerpc-next that clash. I can still make a topic branch, but it would have to include ~10 powerpc commits prior to this patch. > 2) One of the maintainers takes both patches, once the other has acked > their patch.

If the mtd maintainers are happy with it this would be the easier approach in this instance. cheers _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
