Thanks!

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

Hi Mark,

I think we should include even patch 3/4 since it fixes some errors in
mtd_oobtest kernel test module (and even some ubifs reported errors).

Regards,
Lorenzo

Your changelog doesn't actually describe what might be fixed there and
it's not obvious from the change itself.

sorry to be no clear on it. Patches 1/4, 2/4 and 3/4 are fixing outstanding
issues while patch 4/4 is an optimization and we can apply it later on, up to
you.

Lorenzo

Yes, what I'm saying is that I can't tell what those issues might be for
patch 3.  The changelog for the patch should describe what it's supposed
to fix.

ack. The issue is the 'read cache' logic present in the vendor sdk codebase I
added in the upstream driver is buggy and it is introducing errors reported
by mtd_oobtest kernel test module. Since we do not get any read/write speed
improvement using the cache, in order to fix the mtd_oobtest test, I decided
to get rid of the 'read cache' since it is not useful. Now the driver is passing
all the tests available in mtd_test suite.
Do you want me to repost just this patch updating the commit log?

Regards,
Lorenzo

It'd be a bit easier to resend this and patch 4 but yes.  Please mention
exactly what the errors that mtd_oobtest finds are and ideally why
removing the cache fixes them in the changelog.
