Subject: Re: [PATCH net-next 0/2] mlx4 XDP TX refactor

Hi Dave,

This series makes Brenden's fix unneeded:
958b3d396d7f ("net/mlx4_en: fixup xdp tx irq to match rx")

The fix got into net, but yet to be in net-next.

Should I wait with this series and send a re-spin, with a revert of the 
fix, once it gets into net-next?

Regards,
Tariq
