Something is odd with this patch, it doesn't apply, even against that commit id: Applying: staging: r8821ae: Remove driver from staging error: patch failed: drivers/staging/rtl8821ae/btcoexist/HalBtc8812a1Ant.c:1 error: drivers/staging/rtl8821ae/btcoexist/HalBtc8812a1Ant.c: patch does not apply Patch failed at 0001 staging: r8821ae: Remove driver from staging The copy of the patch that failed is found in: /home/gregkh/linux/work/staging/.git/rebase-apply/patch When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue". If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead. To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort". Can you refresh against the staging-next branch of staging.git and try it again? Or I can just delete it "by hand" which is fine with me, and might be easier fro you, just let me know. thanks, greg k-h
