Hello,

compared to v2 sent with Message-Id:
20181123085158.24753-1-u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de I squashed in the
change suggested by Robin (with s/filed/field/). Thanks for testing and
feedback.

Best regards

In my eyes this series is ready to go in. The feedback I got so far was
only that there could be done still more. And given that patch 2 is a
fix I'd like to see this in 4.21.

Best regards

It looked like there was an unanswered question about if patch 2 was
needed or not?  Marek?

I cannot find an unanswered question. There is a workaround that Marek
introduced in 6fd8b8503a0dcf66510314dc054745087ae89f94 that might not be
needed any more with my patch 2. So it's the other way round: If Marek's
problem is fixed by patch 2, my patch is the better one. I have problems
with SCK changing polarity when CS is already asserted in the presence
of Marek's change. After my change they are gone. Even if this
workaround is superflous now, it doesn't hurt and IMHO the question if
it is needed or not should not delay my fix.

If I miss something, can you please point out the message-id?

Best regards
Uwe

That was the unanswered question.

Please include human readable descriptions of things like commits and
issues being discussed in e-mail in your mails, this makes them much
easier for humans to read especially when they have no internet access.
I do frequently catch up on my mail on flights or while otherwise
travelling so this is even more pressing for me than just being about
making things a bit easier to read.

FTR: your reference to an "unanswered question" wasn't optimal either. I
had to search my inbox for a while to determine what you could have
meant :-)

I'm always willing to learn how to make my mails more cooperative.

I'd hope that even when offline you have a linux.git at hand to resolve
what I meant with "6fd8b8503a0dcf66510314dc054745087ae89f94". Apart from
this unannotated commit hash it's not clear to me what else could have
been improved here.

Best regards
Uwe

At the time I wrote that I didn't actually know, I just knew that I'd
remembered the subthread ended with a question to Marek about if this
was needed.

Including the title of the commit.  It's not just about offline usage,
it's also about making the mail easier to read - having to stop and use
another tool to understand what's being talked about is a blocker to the
flow of reading the message.

Just to expand on this a bit: the way I'm working here is that I'm
remembering if there's some reason I'm expecting some additional
replies, either because there's someone likely to do review on the
relevant code, there was some specific question I remember or because
there was a discussion that seemed to peter out without conclusion
between people who are likely to respond.  If something like that is
happening I'll leave a bit longer for replies than I might otherwise
(conversely if it's something where it's very unlikely that there will
be any comment I'll tend to leave less time).
