Is next/cleanup of arm-soc tree stable?

[Shawn Guo]

Olof, Kevin,

Per reports from linux-next folks, it seems that my imx/soc branch
conflicts with Sebastian's clk-of-init-v2_for-3.13 quite badly.  I'm
considering to rebase my imx/soc branch on arm-soc next/cleanup branch
to solve the conflicts.  But is the branch stable, or do I have to base
on Sebastian's clk-of-init-v2_for-3.13 branch (assume it's stable)?

Generally, the next/* branches are not stable.

It would be better if you could get a commitment from Sebastian for a
immutable branch and base directly on that.

Shawn,

I sent a PR for the above a while ago [1]. I am not going to touch this
branch at all. Compared to what will go into -next, the was a section
mismatch fixup patch for nomadik requested by Olof.

If you or Kevin want me to prepare (different) rebased branch, I can
do that. Otherwise, I suggest to just pull the existing branch as a
dependency.

Ok, will do so.  Thanks, Sebastian.
