These patches wait for application for quite some time now. They apply just fine to v6.4-rc1 and next/master. Would be great to get them in during the next merge window and ideally give them some time in next before. Best regards Uwe

Thanks, these seem fine to me, and Lorenzo normally takes care of drivers/pci/controller/. Lorenzo, if it's easier to have me apply them, that's fine, too, just let me know. The only tweaks I would make would be: PCI: j721e: Convert to platform remove callback returning void PCI: dwc: Convert to platform remove callback returning void to match the git history.

Otherwise if these are adapted when applying them, that's fine for me, too. Just tell me if I should do anything here. Best regards Uwe

Hello Bjorn, it should be expected that other changes for PCIe drivers sent by other people which were sent to the list before this patch series and are still waiting for the review (because are without comments), would be processed before and patches sent later. Also I would like to point out that in past I have sent fixes for PCIe mvebu driver, which is currently in the broken state. And this is also on waiting on the list.

I don't think it's necessary to delay simple, easily-reviewed changes behind more complicated ones. > Also I would like to point out that in past I have sent fixes for PCIe > mvebu driver, which is currently in the broken state. And this is also > on waiting on the list. Thanks for this reminder. Would you mind reposting them? I poked around in patchwork and I must be doing something wrong because I can't find *any* patches from you, though obviously there are many. If you repost them at least we'll know unambiguously what is on the table. Bjorn

And some were also reposted by other people. I do not know if they are in patchwork, but they are in email archive. For example last repost of aardvark patches are here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20220927141926.8895-1-kabel@kernel.org/ And some other aardvark are also here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20220711120626.11492-1-pali@kernel.org/

Applied to controller/remove-void-callbacks, thank you!

Just tell me if I should do anything here. I took the entire series and tweaked the subject lines as Bjorn requested. Thank you! Krzysztof
