Hi, Is there work needed to be done on those patches? It seems that the approach taken by those patches is accepted at the end. Also, Vivek Goyal has acked it. This patch is fixing stuff [1] that got into last 'net-next' (3.17). Should I wait for it to appear in the next 'net' and send the patchset to 'net' or can I send it now to 'net-next'? [1] ea1c1af ("net/mlx4_en: Reduce memory consumption on kdump kernel") and 2599d85 ("net/mlx4_core: Use low memory profile on kdump kernel") Thanks, Amir > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >
