Hello Greg, Thus wrote Greg KH (greg@kroah.com):
You did? Was this on December 12: Subject: [PATCH] mfd: fsl-imx25: Clean up irq settings during removal ?
yes, that was what I submitted.
If so, I totally missed it (just now dug in my archives to find it.)
Is there anything that's wrong or missing? Is there a mailing list archive for stable@vger.kernel.org where I can have a look at correct submissions and check that my submission made it to the list?
There is an archive, yes, I think vger lists it.
The gmane.org achive listed there doesn't work. Someone added a link to the spinics.net archive recently, this is working.
As for what to do next time, I ignored this as I didn't know what to do with it. For some reason I thought it was just a "normal" patch being sent to the subsystem, sorry.
Next time put below the --- line something like "Can you queue this up for 4.14?"
Ok, understood. I'll do that next time.
Or even a simpler email would be: Can you please include git commit id 18f773937968 ("mfd: fsl-imx25: Clean up irq settings during removal") in the 4.14 stable tree? I forgot to tag it when I submitted it to the mfd subsystem.
And I can take it from there.
Care to try that?
Sure. But you beat me to it and queued the patch already ;-)
And also, you can just email the stable list in response to your original message saying "Just curious as to the state of this." I do get a ton of email, and sometimes things fall through the cracks, like this time. Being reminded after a week or two is not a problem, if you don't get a response, it's usually required :)
Ok, just wanted to check first if I submitted the patch correctly. Anyway, thanks for the quick repsonse and for queuing the patch. Martin
