I told you before: The proper subsystem for x86 is x86 and not staging. You can chose to ignore my review comments, but then you don't have to wonder that I'm going to ignore you as well. Aside of that, you got at least TWO messages from your mail server, that mail to 'glx@linutronix.de' cannot be delivered, but that seems to be information to ignore as well. > Fixed ERROR: trailing whitespace issues What's the point of this? You used checkpatch.pl on that file. Can you figure out from the name of that script what's the purpose of that script? The purpose is obviously to check patches for correctness. The fact that you can run checkpatch.pl with the -f commandline option on an existing file does not change that. And trailing whitespace is the least of our worries, really. Thanks, tglx
