I ignored your v2 patchset because of the follow-up message:

| Re: [PATCH v2 8/8] PM / devfreq: exynos-bus: Register cooling device
|
| Dear all,
|
| Please ignore this patch. It has some problem.
| I'll fix and resend this patch on v2.

I thought you'd send another series with [PATCH v3 x/8]...

(I've just noticed that [PATCH v2.1] was sent yesterday.
Is the patchsetv2 ready with the replacement of 8th commit?)

Cheers,
MyungJoo

ps. you know I'm going to be away for a long vacation
starting this week.
I can't gurantee that I'll see all of the set before the vacation.
