Greg applies patches in the order they come. It's normally straight forward which ones are going to be merged and which ones are not. So you could just apply Giedrius's patch and put a note in the --- cut off the it depends on the earlier patch. If the patch doesn't apply, Greg won't take any time to figure out why. You'll just get a note to redo it. If you two plan on working on the same driver for a while then you could coordinate your patches and send them as a patchset. regards, dan carpenter
