Hi Rui,

I wonder whether you've had time to apply my set of patches already? Would you please be so kind to just send me a short reply?

The bang-bang governor was merged and is part of v3.18-rc2:

Seems like the other 5 patches of the series were not applied. So I need to take care again, or?

kind regards,

Cheers,
Javi
