Hi Olof,

Well, makes sense too and it is the least problematic approach. :-)

Ok.

No, I just wanted to make sure drivers can still function when they go
to linux-next. But I certainly can get on board with keeping drivers and
DT changes separate as it requires no sync and the short period of time
when they don't load in linux-next, is perfectly ok.

So can I assume you guys are going to pick up:

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1538667328-9465-7-git-send-email-manish.narani@xilinx.com
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1540447621-22870-6-git-send-email-manish.narani@xilinx.com

?

I can then pick up the rest.

And I'll be ignoring DT stuff sent to me from now on and concentrate on
the EDAC drivers, assuming former will go through your tree.

Sounds good?

Thx.
