Dear Mike Frysinger,

If you are trying to help, there are other, better ways:
You can post Acked-by: or even better Tested-by: messages (now *that* would be really helpful!)
You can apply such patches to a *separate branch* in your repo (or somewhere else), and then post a summary Acked-by: or Tested-by: message
i dont see how those are relevant here seeing as how they all have my Signed- off-by tag ... that implies both my ack and test.
i figured pinging every non-Blackfin-specific patch by me would be more time consuming than a simple pull request for you. would it be ok if i used a different branch then and indicated in the summary along those lines ?
Yes, that would be helpful - that is exactly what I suggested above.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
