The history of this branch due to the double dependencies gets a bit
awkward. Also, it seems like you in one of your merges kept the
'default y' in NET_CADENCE that should have been removed.
Would you mind trying this instead?
* Base this new branch on the previous macb-gem branch
* Cherry-pick the fixes from 'fixes' into the new branch if truly
needed -- I tested here and all of the patches applied cleanly.
* Then apply these patches
* For build testing before sending, merge into for-next to aggregate
with the rest of the 'fixes' changes -- it's OK that we have to do a
fixup here.
That should give a clean branch with neat history for just these
changes. About 'fixes': Since they are in for-next, and will be in
3.2, that dependency will be taken care of that way.
Then send a fresh pull request for that new branch, please.
Thanks!
