There's just 30 hours in a day ;-) perhaps linux-next should propagate all add-on fix patches it is carrying against subsystem trees if they are still relevant to -git, once the subsystem tree goes to -git, and re-post them to lkml in that case, to avoid duplicative work? Once it's on lkml i think most subsystem maintainers will find any missing patches. > I (and I assume Andrew) have been carrying them since then but noone > took them up.
