Then it shouldn't be in -next. -next is a tree for integration testing
and conflict discovery for the upcoming merge window, and should only
contain code targetted at that merge window. Here's a reminder of
sfr's boilerplate which lays this out:
Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next. As
you may know, this is not a judgment of your code. The purpose of
linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of
conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window.
You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have
been:
* submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's
Signed-off-by,
* posted to the relevant mailing list,
* reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree),
* successfully unit tested, and
* destined for the current or next Linux merge window.
It seems it doesn't satisfy the last point there.
