This patch-set was primarily sent for Doug Ledford and is based on his internal repository (which has been rebased on the net-next). Though we were hoping, if by any chance, we can expedite the acceptance of the below patch part of patch-set in the net-next. This might help Doug Ledford as well later on when he pushes the already accepted RoCE driver and ACPI patches to linux-next, "[PATCH for-next 1/2] net: hns: Add support of ACPI to HNS driver RoCE Reset function" Below HNS RoCE reset function patch has already been accepted and is part of your net-next, https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9287497/ Above ACPI support of RoCE Reset patch cleanly applies over the already accepted patch in the link. It is not dependent on other accompanying RoCE driver ACPI changes related patch or even the presence of the Infiniband/RoCE Driver in the net-next repository. Could you please suggest anything here?
