as I explained to Linus, my current assumption was that documentation
updates and new driver stuff should go in quickly. You will not get any
of these from me anymore. Next time you only get the one regression fix
and all my queued up stuff in the next merge window.

Don't hold back if you think that a patch is not acceptable. Really, I
am using GIT for everything. Merging is no problem for me. I also do
backports in my -mh patch for the latest stable kernel. So there is no
extra work for me. It is just sending you a new email with another tree
to pull from :)

Regards

Marcel
