Subject: Re: [PATCH V3] Staging: rtl8712 removed unnecessary else after return

Hi Greg,

Sorry for noob question. I am still new to Kernel development.

I understood from your comment that the patch did not apply cleanly to
your tree (may be due to change in the code which I have modified)

But what should I do after this?
1) Send patch on rebased file to same mail chain with (--in-reply-to)
and [PATCH V4] ? OR
2) Create new PATCH and start new mail chain done on latest code.

Regards,
Nitin
