Yeah I put the changelog in the cover letter. There were no changes on this patch, though I admit that wasn't entirely clear now re-reading the cover letter text. I also didn't account for the fact that you probably aren't reading the whole series since I only Cc'd you on this patch, not the whole series. In any case, I probably shouldn't have re-sent the whole series after one minor modification to one patch in the series. -Mitch -- The Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of the Code Aurora Forum, hosted by The Linux Foundation
