This phraseology usually means apply to the linus kernel now.

However, these are an enhancement stream for the kernel.

So I'm assuming these aren't essential bug fixes, but can wait until the
next merge window?  If not, they need to be made against current
upstream (because they won't apply without the updates patches).

James,

   
          This can wait until the next merge window,so, can go to scsi-misc tree.

Thanks
Jay
