[U-Boot] [STATUS] next rebased / ARM help needed / release delayed

[Wolfgang Denk]

Hello,

here is some news.  Not exactly good news it seems:

1) I had to rebase the "next" branch to remove a commit which
   incorrectly changed behaviour of some commands.

2) By some stupid accident I lost track of some / most / all
   ARM related patches that are supposed to go into the current
   release and/or next; unfortunately I also maked these as "applied'
   in patchwork.

   If you have any outstanding ARM patches that should go in, please
   drop me a note (ideally including the respective link into
   patchwork).

   Thanks, and sorry again.

3) We will have a delay in the release. I will try to get a -rc3 out by
   the weekend; new target for 2010.12 is December 20 (but don't hold
   your breath).

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

Apart from the ones already in u-boot-arm/master I have four other
patches for v2010.12:
 - http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73686/  [U-Boot,4/4] armv7: fix
relocation skip
 - http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73685/  [U-Boot,3/4] arm:
fixloop(): do not use r8 for relocation
 - http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73683/  [U-Boot,2/4] arm:
relocate_code(): do not set register useless
 - http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73684/ [U-Boot,1/4] arm:
copy_loop(): use scratch register

All of them are 'accepted' by 'wd' and I can not find them in
u-boot-arm/master

But I have never seen a concrete 'Acked-by' nor 'Tested-by' for those
patches. Albert can you please do so?
I think they are correct and really needed but my understanding of that
multi eyes principles is to have more than one to sign a patch.

No problem for me.

can you please mark http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73563/ as superseeded?

This is the patch which should not go into mainline but has 'accepted'
state.

While money can't buy happiness, it certainly lets  you  choose  your
own form of misery.

Found them, and pushed them out to "master" now.

No. If I don't get this out by Dec 22, it will not be released before
Dec 28 either.
