No rush in general, I just wanted to make sure you weren't waiting on me while I
was waiting for you.

We're at the mercy of Linus' decision regarding how many RCs before he releases
4.1. I suspect we have another week, but it could be this weekend.

I like to have new functionality in linux-next for two weeks prior to sending a
pull to Linus. To meet that, you should really have it in this weekend. If Linus
releases 4.1 this weekend, that will just barely make two weeks before the end
of the merge window.

Thanks,
