Hi, This introduced a new PMD for that architecture, right? If so I can merge the patch, at the following conditions: 1) It will be disabled by default 2) Support and help in backporting will have to be provided by the authors for the remaining lifetime of 16.11 Is this OK for you? > On Monday 26 February 2018 05:04 PM, Luca Boccassi wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > Here is a list of patches targeted for LTS release 16.11.5.
