Don't forget to specify the tree in the subject line: [PATCH net-next v4 0/2] net: stmmac: ... which may be a factor in it not showing up. It's worth keeping an eye on: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?delegate=123371 about 24h after submission in case of any issues. Thanks. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
