We don't have such kind of policy. I simply discussed about your bug
with Cyrille and he managed to fix it. Since there are many
combinations (IP version, PIO/dma, hdmac/xdmac), I wanted to test it on
other platforms that the one used by Cyrille and add my signed-off-by
before sending it.

If nothing goes wrong (one platform has not been tested yet), the patch will
be sent this afternoon.

Cyrille answered in English in order to not create confusion with a patch which
could not fit all combinations.

Regards

Ludovic
