This doesn't apply against current code, please check and resend.

Hmm... It's based on the spi/for-next. Should I use another branch?

I did try to apply it against that in case there were fixes that needed
merging up, it didn't apply.  Are you sure you're using an up to date
copy?  I have ebd50ac3cd97ecae231f92b2d64b68d3c66b3474.

Yes, the base where it was merged to is eds-acpi branch of my public GH [1],
which has no SPI stuff in there.

Okay, It might be that I send the previous version by a mistake or it was based
on an old spi/for-next. Now I don't know as it's gone.

Thanks!

[1/1] spi: Use inclusive language
      commit: 91ce208d7ab7ab7703537a054a0c31cb53bbf302

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
