Maybe we could use the v1 version which does not include the linux-6.13.y tag.

Commit d9eb5a1e76f5 ("selftests/mm: build with -O2”) goes into linux-6.13 with tag v6.13.2, last week’s tag. I checked the queue-6.12 and do not see this patch yet for v6.12. I think we still need this for v6.12. About the patch, it fixes a build issue for selftest/mm, which is bacported to v6.12. Thus this patch should only be backported to v6.12. > > > > I tested it on my device and it works fine and solved the failure of selftest. > > > Hi Greg, > > I checked the v6.12.16 tag released last Friday. It does not contain this patch. It looks we will not see the same situation we have for v6.13 like I mentioned above and it’s safe to include this in v6.12. I don't know what "this patch" is here, sorry, I have no context. > I could resend a v3 with all the linux-6.13.y tags removed if you want. Whatever needs to be applied, yes, please resend it properly. thanks, greg k-h
