Actually we have been reviewing the driver with full diffs, one file per patch style[1], so I think everyone are happy. At least I have not heard any complaints. And Ajay already submitted that the simple rename patch proposed, thanks Ajay! https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11625025/ And indeed the patch is simple as it can get. So Greg, if it's ok for you I would like to apply that simple patch to wireless-drivers-next. > Note, I can't guarantee that I'll not take any wilc1000 patches, I'll > probably forget, but git mv will handle all of that just fine. Good point. To be on the safe side one option is that if I create a topic branch for this simple patch and use v5.8-rc1 as the baseline. Then I would pull the topic branch to wireless-drivers-next and you could pull it to staging-next. That way you would not have wilc1000 in your tree anymore and no accidental submission or commits either :) What do you think?
