Arnd, Gregory, these fixes are not stable yet, please don't pull them.
We will send a new version after we end up our discussion about that
issue with Marvell.

[Gregory CLEMENT]

Hello Arnd and Marek,

I don't know why but I didn't receive the email from Arnd. It is thanks
to Marek answer that I was able to see it. I also don't see Arn email in
the arm-kernel archive mailing list;
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2020-October/date.html

Is there a way to avoid this in the future ?

For the last release I was not notified that the pull request was
merged, so I wasn't worried about it. I was surprised to not see my
branch in the arm-soc tree, but i though that the branch was not
updated on the server.

Actually there was 3 other branch: dt, dt64 and arm. I will rebase them.

However I wonder if it could worse to apply the patch "MAINTAINERS:
switch mvebu tree to kernel.org" to 5.10, as it will help people to know
where is located the current development branch.

OK, so I will submit a new pull request for fixes once the new version
will be submitted.

Thanks,

Gregory

I've been having problems with my @arndb.de address getting flagged as
spam, so the problem is on my end.

There was some lack of communication on our side: Olof had done
all the merges but then wasn't around for the last few weeks and
I failed to notice that I should take over.

Yes, please send that as a bugfix, I generally take MAINTAINER file
updates along with code fixes as they are obviously harmless and
useful to have in the release.
