I did read it, what I wasn't sure about is after

Eric has sent a pull request to you
you have sent a pull request to Linus
Linus has merged your tree
you can (and will) now pull further trees

whether you will be sending another pull request to Linus in this merge 
window and if so - approximately when. Or whether because Eric's request 
has missed your first pull request it now has to be pulled directly by 
Linus to make it in this window. After this your reply it seems to be the 
former, so, I'm hoping you'll be sending a next pull request to Linus with 
PXA patches in your tree some time soon in this merge window.

Thanks
