What will be the merge strategy ? I guess it's a bit late to get it
through powerpc tree, so I was just wondering whether we could get
patches 2 to 5 in mm this cycle, and the powerpc ones next cycle ?

Yeah I didn't pick it up because the mm changes don't have many acks and
I'm always nervous about carrying generic mm changes.

It would be my preference if Andrew could take 2-5 through mm for v5.18,
but it is quite late, so I'm not sure how he will feel about that.

5.18 isn't a problem.  Perhaps you meant 5.17, which would be real tough.

Can we take a look after 5.18-rc1?

5.18-rc1 was released last night.

Can you take patchs 2-5 as they are, or do you prefer I resend them to yourself as a standalone series ?


Are you expecting anything from me ? Do you need a resend of those 4 patches as a standalone series ?

Thanks
