For ease of review if there's a new version it might be as well to just reference it anyway, hopefully the mlx5 code will be merged fairly quickly once the bus itself is merged. It's probably easier all round than adding the reference later, it seems more likely that mlx5 will get merged than that it'll fall by the wayside. --WRT3RXLOp/bBMgTI Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCgAdFiEEreZoqmdXGLWf4p/qJNaLcl1Uh9AFAl+lpYgACgkQJNaLcl1U h9BucQf/eNw6ctPFmmRQVuSB2n3HuUQKEXfBdp/GJzm2Ao34q3WIZJ5mANQN+PsD 1RdlG+KooBtZmSD8LTDhdMB7I75TNfJOZBV6uGJFOSZ1FPmnYGE8sipgOyMlg94b 6tlWmBBWuueK4uA3etjOa8QTVxysmK+x1JkvBLPFk5t43D3zxOvUhdmdYZbEt3z7 U5amclwnzVW5uwMFacm4zhGSVnffO9rD3HCqieFDgAtPfl/QDuBntmA5lbmpTU0R CiwdqKpuhH2/AX0QHsiFJh6bgxPhEilHcZk7ZZGftB/J+Sc5dxIhXxRTql4R0u0n zkdYy/19+i8RI7ppfSbIPOr91XQsDg== =vai3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --WRT3RXLOp/bBMgTI--
