[U-Boot] Make 'nand write.yaffs' mainline?
Scott pointed me at this patch ( http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot/u-boot-blackfin.git;a=commitdiff;h=44f07de8cc94...) that's in the Blackfin branch.
Would it be possible to make this mainline?
Thanks, --jc

I don't think this patch has ever been submitted on the mailing list, at least I cannot find a posting with this subject.
Without postingit on the ML it cannot go into mainline. Actually if should not have been added to the BF custoidian repository, either.
Being still unfamiliar with u-boot standards and practices for submitting patches, etc, what can I do to make this happen? I can diff it against the sources I have and submit a patch to the mailing list, if that's acceptable. I'm building for ARM, and I've proved it works (needing only a one change because of the lack of __udivid3 for ARM).

See http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/Patches for details.
In this case, please make sure especially to include all previous Signed-off-by: messages.

it has been mentioned on the mailing list before, but in a "i have this change but no idea if it's the right way to go". no feedback -> it doesnt go anywhere. we (Blackfin) dont really care about yaffs anymore since it hasnt gone into mainline Linux and ubifs should be able to replace it, so if someone else wants to champion the patch, they're certainly free to.
Actually if should not have been added to the BF custoidian repository, either.
what a custodian chooses to do in their branches is their own business -mike

Agreed - as long as it's in branches you never submit in a pull request. But even then it would probably be better to do this in a separate repo.
