Please add rust-i2c-next and rust-i2c-fixes to linux-next

[Igor Korotin]

Hi Stephen,

Please add the following tree to linux-next:
Tree: https://github.com/ikrtn/rust-for-linux
- Branch: rust-i2c-next
- Branch: rust-i2c-fixes

This is the maintainer tree for the Rust I2C subsystem.

Thanks,
Igor

Mark Brown (cc'd) now maintains the linux-next tree.

All being well these should be included from today.

Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next.  As
you may know, this is not a judgement of your code.  The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window.

You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
     * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
        Signed-off-by,
     * posted to the relevant mailing list,
     * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
     * successfully unit tested, and
     * destined for the current or next Linux merge window.

Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him
to fetch).  It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary.

BTW I note that both trees have the same content and that looks like
-next material, I would expect the -fixes branch to be based on Linus'
tree and only contain bug fixes.

Both branches currently have identical content because they are newly
created.
If the -fixes branch is expected to be based on Linus’s tree and contain
only bug fixes, I can rebase it accordingly. Please confirm the preferred
base branch.
Thanks
Igor

The fixes branches are generally expected to contain things intended to
be sent to Linus' tree this cycle rather than material for the next
merge window, they are merged first and published separately as the
pending-fixes branch before the rest of the merge proceeds.  People then
take that branch and do testing on it independently of the rest of -next
so if it starts acquiring material that's not a bug fix intended to go
in during the release cycle that might cause confusion.

Ok, I've rebased rust-i2c-fixes to point to 
https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git master.

Thanks
