My 'arm/late' branch is currently based on a random commit 16477cdfefdb ("Merge tag 'asm-generic-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic") as well, but this is an exception and I will explain it when I send the pull request ;-) - The tag description is only a single line, there should be at least some content in here. Please have a look at other merge commits to see what you can put in here. For a small number of independent patches like these two, you can also just forward them to soc@kernel.org as individual emails without a tag. - The subject lines of the individual emails should have the right namespace listed in them, e.g. 'arm64: s32g: ...'. Fabio's patch originally had this, but it looks like the entire subject line got lost. - The subject for the pull request indicates that this is meant as your normal submission, but this is the wrong time for that, because the merge window is currently open. At this point, only bugfixes get merged, but I do classify MAINTAINERS changes as bugfixes, so this is actually ok, just change the subject. Please address these and resend. Arnd
