Subject: RE: [PATCH] Remove warning printk

Hi Greg,

Will send out a new patch mail with single patch shortly.

I have not yet find a good way to reply mail and add patch yet with my mailing server/client.

That's why I send out a separate email instead of replying to Arnd.

Below is his email and it has his signed-off, that's why I put that in my patch you got.

I took that out from a new patch to make it clear on your end.

Regards,

ISS

Here is Arnd's original email

Subject: [PATCH] staging: gs_fpgaboot: remove __TIMESTAMP__ macro

We specifically build the kernel with -Werror=date-time to detect
such macros, which gives us this error:

gs_fpgaboot/gs_fpgaboot.c:376:44: error: macro "__TIMESTAMP__" might prevent reproducible builds [-Werror=date-time]
  pr_info("built at %s UTC\n", __TIMESTAMP__);

The obvious fix is to remove the printk output line.

Did Arnd really sign off on this?

And what is with the "odd" subject, your first email should have been
the subject of this one.  We don't need a "cover letter" for a one-patch
email sequence.

Care to fix this up and resend?

thanks,

greg k-h
