The mm-of-the-moment snapshot 2010-06-03-16-36 has been uploaded to
http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/
and will soon be available at
git://zen-kernel.org/kernel/mmotm.git
It contains the following patches against 2.6.35-rc1:
(snip)
ssb-add-dma_dev-to-ssb_device-structure.patch
b43legacy-replace-the-ssb_dma-api-with-the-generic-dma-api.patch
b43-replace-the-ssb_dma-api-with-the-generic-dma-api.patch
b44-replace-the-ssb_dma-api-with-the-generic-dma-api.patch
ssb-remove-the-ssb-dma-api.patch
Is there any reason why the above patches are still in -mm (i.e. not
merged in the previous merge window)?
Two lines earlier:
# propagate these:
is akpm shorthand for "send these through maintainers".
I prefer to go that way if the patch isn't urgent, just to get a bit
more attention and review. If the patch has a maintainer ack already
then I'll often merge it directly.
I got an ACK on the first patch to ssb core from the ssb maintainer,
ACKs on the second and third to b43legacy and b43 from the maintainer.

And none of the above patches were sent to me with acked-by:s, and
nobody sent new acked-by:s, so I didn't know this!
Oh, sorry.
I guess John is the conduit for all five of the above so I'll send them
to him now and he might decide to squeak them into 2.6.35.
Thanks. They aren't urgent. 2.6.26 is fine.
But before I do that, please send me an email telling me who acked each
patch and I'll update that info.
The first version included the first, second, third, and forth
patches' changes:
