Just keep going. The maintainers will keep a queue of patches and then try to apply them in order when the merge window -rc1 is released for the next one. Worse cases would be that the patches will no longer apply (in which case, a V2 will be needed) or, if you haven't heard anything for a while after the -rc1, then a patch RESEND should do the trick. Hope that helps, Justin. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
