Subject: Re: [RFC v2 0/6] Managing cluser-level c-states with generic power
domains
Hi Marc,
I am trying to apply this on top of Axel's patches on linux-next (after
fixing issues I saw with his v9), and running to issues applying your
patches. Could you rebase on top of his v10 (he said he would send to
the ML soon) ?
Thanks,
Lina
