yes. To my understanding the FPIN patch series has been queued in
scsi-queue anyway, so it would be better to just send an incremental
patch on top of that.
Especially as Martin has already indicated that he will _not_ rebase
his tree.

Best to just send this patch as a stand-alone patch, and then rebase
any not-yet-upstreamed patchsets on top of that.

Cheers,

Hannes
