But then why some of my patches which were based on linux-next were
accepted?
for example today You've accepted
my patch "Staging: vt6655: Remove explicit NULL comparison using
Coccinelle"
with commit id 4d932504b534584e116b400dd6e7b8ce7deb455c,
which you can check on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
This patch was based on linux-next tree.
Please clear my confusion.
Thanks,
Shyam
