I'm getting worried now that nothing's been accepted in patchwork & no fixes are present in either your upstream-linus or upstream-sfr repositories, even though there have been a good number of fixes pending since well before -rc2. Given that we're closing in on -rc4 & you're on holiday from then until ~-rc6 it would be fantastic if we could get these fixes in ASAP, and preferrably to have some other means of getting any necessary patches into mainline whilst you're away. I'd be happy to help any way I can, but really really don't want v4.9 to be a broken release for MIPS - especially given that it'll be LTS.
