Laurent,

The problem is that those patches got merged already at media_tree,
at the media-controller topic branch.

Any rebase there will break the git copies from all developers that are
based on it. It will also break the trees at linuxtv.org, since the
developer trees share objects with media_tree.git, in order to save
space on the servers.

What we could try to do is to fold them just before sending the pull
request upstream, as we're using tags for pull requests.

I'll do that during the merge window, if someone reminds me about
what patches should be fold. I guess there are only two or three
patches to be fold, as the only compilation breakages I'm aware are
the ones related to Javier's patch series that broke media_device
init from the media devnode creation.

Regards,
Mauro
