Sorry for the error, as you can see in the original e-mail, I generated the pull request aginst 'mtd/next' (the branch name), instead of 'mtd/for-5.16', the signed tag with the below description written for the occasion. I am going to resend the pull-request with these missing bits. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Core: * Remove obsolete macros only used by the old nand_ecclayout struct * Don't remove debugfs directory if device is in use * MAINTAINERS: - Add entry for Qualcomm NAND controller driver - Update the devicetree documentation path of hyperbus MTD devices: * block2mtd: - Add support for an optional custom MTD label - Minor refactor to avoid hard coded constant * mtdswap: Remove redundant assignment of pointer eb CFI: * Fixup CFI on ixp4xx Raw NAND controller drivers: * Arasan: - Prevent an unsupported configuration * Xway, Socrates: plat_nand, Pasemi, Orion, mpc5121, GPIO, Au1550nd, AMS-Delta: - Keep the driver compatible with on-die ECC engines * cs553x, lpc32xx_slc, ndfc, sharpsl, tmio, txx9ndfmc: - Revert the commits: "Fix external use of SW Hamming ECC helper" - And let callers use the bare Hamming helpers * Fsmc: Fix use of SM ORDER * Intel: - Fix potential buffer overflow in probe * xway, vf610, txx9ndfm, tegra, stm32, plat_nand, oxnas, omap, mtk, hisi504, gpmi, gpio, denali, bcm6368, atmel: - Make use of the helper function devm_platform_ioremap_resource{,byname}() Onenand drivers: * Samsung: Drop Exynos4 and describe driver in KConfig Raw NAND chip drivers: * Hynix: Add support for H27UCG8T2ETR-BC MLC NAND SPI NOR core: * Add spi-nor device tree binding under SPI NOR maintainers SPI NOR manufacturer drivers: * Enable locking for n25q128a13 SPI NOR controller drivers: * Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource_byname() ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > I wrote my own explanation, and then decided that no, I'm not going to > pull at all because the pull request was so bad and deficient. I hope you will reconsider this position when I will re-send the actual pull request with the above text which was missing. Thanks, Miquèl
