I'm confused, I see lots of different patches here, with this final
thread looking like this:
Apr 13 Alexandru Hossu ( 51) [PATCH v2 1/2] staging: nvec: fix use-after-free in nvec_rx_completed()
Apr 13 Alexandru Hossu ( 40) └─>[PATCH v2 2/2] staging: nvec: fix unconditional pm_power_off teardown
Apr 13 Dan Carpenter ( 26) ├─>
Apr 13 Alexandru Hossu ( 42) └─>[PATCH v3] staging: nvec: fix unconditional pm_power_off teardown
What is patch v3 of? What about patch 1/2?
This is really confusing.
When redoing a patch in a series, you need to resend the whole series as
a new version. Otherwise I have no idea what to do (and our tools get
_VERY_ confused as well.)
So a v4 full series please?
thanks,
