Subject: RE: [PATCH v2 0/2] cxgb3/cxgb3i: added support of private MAC address and provisioning packet handler for iSCSI

Hmm, I am wondering how could this merge activity to be coordinated? If
only the driver/scsi change is merged, then it won't compile either,
since it requires the driver/net change.

Is it possible to merge both patches to the scsi or net tree?

Thanks,
Karen

I think I'm going to ask you to resubmit the drivers/net patch
after the necessary drivers/scsi changes get merged by the scsi
folks.

Thank you.
