Hi Vadim, We are now in the RC cycle for 4.16. Do you consider these changes to be "fixes" that need to be included in 4.16? It was difficult to tell from the commit messages how severe some of the possible issues were. I'm concerned about the level of testing seen by the previous patch series if we are getting these changes so soon after they were merged. Can you comment on why these are being discovered now - and how confident are we in the drivers with these changes applied? > > Vadim Pasternak (4): > platform/x86: mlx-platform: Use define for the channel numbers > platform/x86: mlx-platform: Add differed bus functionality > platform/mellanox: mlxreg-hotplug: Change input for device create > routine > platform/x86: mlx-platform: Add physical bus number auto detection > > drivers/platform/mellanox/mlxreg-hotplug.c | 31 +++++++++----- > drivers/platform/x86/mlx-platform.c | 68 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- > include/linux/platform_data/mlxreg.h | 4 ++ > 3 files changed, 90 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) > > -- > 2.1.4 > > -- Darren Hart VMware Open Source Technology Center
