Please continue with good work. I only wish I've seen your patch sooner ;) Don't start a fight over my head without me. :) Daniel, thanks for the patches for bringing sunxi up to 3.19. I already had done some work, but this patchset helps, so I'll work it in and add you as SoB when committing. One small note, it might be worth to send generic and target_foo-related in separate series to the list, so they could be picked up and committed separately, avoiding unnecessary confusion. (That's just my $.02 though.) Thanks, -w- ___ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
