Hi John,

mind, you have to get userland patches reviewed and accepted but *not
pushed*.

You cannot push/merge userland patches before the kernel patches have
properly landed, that bit you got right. But the supposedly confusing
bit is that for kernel patches to land, the userspace patches must be
reviewed and accepted first.

I just wanted to clarify this since you wrote "before pushing the
userland patches" above.


Thanks,
pq
