Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] Staging: fsl-mc: include: mc-bus: Kernel type 's16' preferred over 'int16_t'

Sorry for this misunderstanding,

Since received a response from Stuart on my previous patch telling me I was probably working on a out-of-date codebase,
I started to look where I did go wrong.

After some research I found out that I was always one step behind because I was developing on the actual Linux kernel branch instead
of using the Staging-next as my codebase.

He wrote me to sent the patches that still apply over again with a new version tag so that's why this patch only contains 2 of them.

I am still new at contributing to the Linux kernel and some things were not really clear to me at the beginning.
I hope that you could still use these patches and I am trying to avoid misunderstandings like these.

Do I still need to resend them and is there anything left for me to do with these?

Best regards,

Shiva Kerdel

What is different from your v1 patch?

I'm confused now, I have two different series from you, one 6 patches
long, and one 2 patches long, claiming to do the same thing.

I've dropped them both from my patch review queue and please, resend
what you really want me to apply :)

thanks,
