It's usually pretty early but Takashi will be on holiday this time so I'm not sure if things might be different (he was going to send the pull request from holiday). I also didn't guarantee that it'll be stable yet, can someone please tell me what the depenency is here?
We need the patch to have all imx drivers mach/* inclusion free, so that we can enable multi-platform support for imx, which is the whole point of the series.
That doesn't answer the question. What is the dependency - what is it about this patch that something else depends on? Your cover letters just say you'd like to do this but don't mention dependencies at all and when I asked the question last night you said the same thing. I've not seen the rest of the series...
If your for-3.7 is not stable anyway, I guess the easiest the way
It probably *is* stable but I'm not enthused about people pulling unsigned tags. I might rebase, though - I'm going to finalise the tree in the next few days.
to do it might be you drop the patch "ASoC: mx27vis: retrieve gpio numbers from platform_data" from your tree and I have it be part of the series to go via arm-soc tree as a whole. (This is the original plan that I mentioned in v1 cover letter)
You just mentioned it as a preference (you said it's something you'd like to do), please if you're doing this sort of cross tree thing be explicit about what the inter-tree relationships are. If things need to go in via the same tree say so explicitly (and ideally say way this is).
The main reason I applied it straight away was that Javier mentioned that it was a bug fix and it's near the merge window and these random ARM cleanup serieses never seem to go in quickly.
