Hi Guenter,

	The mainline kernel doesn't have the base ("net: marvell: prestera: add firmware v4.0 support") commit yet, so the patch will not be applied.

This patch is based on net/master, so you can try the patch there.

To apply this patch to mainline, the following list of patches should be ported from net/master first:
 - bb5dbf2cc64d ("net: marvell: prestera: add firmware v4.0 support")
 - 236f57fe1b88 ("net: marvell: prestera: Add explicit padding")
 - a46a5036e7d2 ("net: marvell: prestera: fix patchwork build problems")
