You probably missed the entry: CLOCKSOURCE, CLOCKEVENT DRIVERS M: Daniel Lezcano M: Thomas Gleixner L: linux-kernel at vger.kernel.org T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers/core S: Supported F: drivers/clocksource > I can easily unqueue the patches - what does submit for the clocksource > tree mean?

I could have directly picked the clocksource/clockevent changes to my tree but I decided to let them go through the ARM's tree. I meant, as the patches are acked (by me), it is ok they are merged through arm's tree. From my POV, it is somewho acceptable when a new SoC support is added. In the future, when the clockevent/clocksource drivers are merged and if there are more changes, at this time, send the patches to Thomas and me as stated in the maintainer file entry, I will take care of them. IOW, everything is fine ;) -- Daniel -- Linaro.org ? Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: Facebook | Twitter | Blog
