It's true that I wanted you to incorporate a few tweaks I had made in my pci/host-synopsys branch, but generating incremental patches on top of that branch makes this too confusing to follow.
My pci/host-synopsys contains two patches on top of v4.5-rc1. I would prefer that you
- fetch that branch, - make whatever edits you need, and - generate fresh patches based on v4.5-rc1 Then everybody can see the whole series at once without trying to integrate these changes with the ones you've previously posted, and I can start from scratch and apply those fresh patches on top of v4.5-rc1.
It's good that you include summaries of what's changed between versions, but if people want to see *exactly* what's changed between your v3 and v4 postings, it's easy for them to download those series, apply them on different branches, and git diff the branches.
Bjorn
