Greg, This horse was beaten to death, can we please progress with this patch? Create special topic branch or ack so I'll prepare this branch. We are in -rc4 now and we (Mellanox) can't hold our submissions anymore. My mlx5_core probe patches [1] were too intrusive and they are ready to be merged, Parav's patches got positive review as well [2] and will be taken next. We delayed and have in our internal queues the patches for VDPA, eswitch and followup for mlx5_core probe rework, but trapped due to this AUX bus patch. Thanks [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/[email protected]/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/by5pr12mb43229f23c101afbcd2971534dc...@by5pr12mb4322.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/T/#md25b9a2feb4c60d3fef5d57da41db559af1062d8
