This isn't my patch, it's a patch by Sugar Zhang from Rockchip that was supposed to have been applied one year ago, give or take 10 days. I can't resend a patch that wasn't authored by me.
There's absolutely no problem with reposting someone else's patch - just add your Signed-off-by at the end of the signoff chain.
Cool. I'm going to wait a couple of days to see if there's any interest from the side of Sugar Zhang of resending the patch with a proper commit message. If not, then I'll resend like you suggested. Thank you.
Therefore I don't see the point of your complaint about "content free pings".
In general the answer to "what's the status of this old patch?" is almost always going to be the same so there's a form letter for it, especially with such an old patch the chances of me having any recollection of what's going on are minimal.
I understand it.
Thank you, Geraldo Nascimento
