Subject: RE: [PATCH v4 2/4] thermal: add brcmstb AVS TMON driver

Hi, Florian,

This patch set was dropped in the last minute because of this discussion
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9936325/
as I don’t want to rebase the patch before sending the pull request.

I don’t think we can make it for 4.14.
Eduardo will be back and pick the soc patches for 4.15.

Thanks,
rui

Humm, I don't see this driver in your latest 4.14 pull request to Linus, so what happened here exactly? Can we expect this driver to be submitted for 4.14 or we just happened to have missed this window now?
