Dmitry has ACKed the input-patch and Bryan has applied that one and the
leds-patches to his tree (of which the first one is a dependency of this
patch).

Jiri, are you saying that the gt683r-driver should go in through his
tree as well, that is all three patches including the first that you
have already applied? I just assumed your for-next branch was immutable,
but perhaps I was mistaken.

Thanks,
Johan
