Please, yes. And while a lot of the patches have been around for a while I think at this point things that are left need to go in to the -next branch as well. Which is unfortunate as they have been out for some time, but given the point in the release cycle this is at, is the best choice I think. And this also goes for "spi" patches as well, as the split between "nand", "mtd' and "spi" is not always logically easy and compounded by our custodians being at the same company with presumably similar things vying for time. Thanks! -- Tom
