No. Greg took your patch as is. No new versions for patches that Maintainers (i.e., Greg Kroah-Hartman for= =20 drivers/staging and several other subsystems and drivers) already applied. We've been discussing this topic after Greg had already taken your patch on= ly=20 for the purpose to clarify to you why he suggested a better commit message.= =20 However, he suggested that better message while stating that he prefers to= =20 take your patch as is to give you time to work on something new. I suppose that you received the two automated messages, the first which=20 communicates that your patch has been applied to his staging-test tree and = the=20 second which says that it has moved forward to the next step, which is the= =20 staging-next tree. I saw those messages in Cc because I put my "Reviewed-by= "=20 tag to your patch, so I know you had them. =46abio P.S.: Today I sent you an off-list message.
