Sakari, Patches committed at media-committers will appear at -next once they reach media-pending (which, except if there are any sync issues, it happens in a question of minutes). Just remind that we don't merge patches for -next after -rc6 (except fixes, in which case you need to warn me about that). If nothing have changed, linux-next also has a similar policy of not wanting patches that won't be merged for the next Kernel cycle, which means that media patches after -rc6 would also wait for the next -rc1 to be merged on a branch that goes to linux-next. So, personally, I don't see any value on linux-next picking directly from your atomisp tree, but that's up to you to decide. Thanks, Mauro
