hpsa patches in mkp/4.12/scsi-queue and mkp/4.11/scsi-fixes
Hi Martin,
I noticed that the following commits
eb94588dabec scsi: hpsa: fix volume offline state 2ef288498087 scsi: hpsa: do not timeout reset operations 87b9e6aa87d9 scsi: hpsa: limit outstanding rescans 85b29008d8af scsi: hpsa: update check for logical volume status
are included in mkp/4.11/scsi-fixes but not in mkp/4.12/scsi-queue. Is there a specific reason for that?
Best regards
Martin W

scsi-fixes and scsi-queue are usually forked from linus/master at the about same time after the merge window closes.
- Bugfixes for the current release go into scsi-fixes.
- New features for next release go into scsi-queue.
Consequently, it's perfectly normal for fixes to be more "recent" than queue. I only rebase the queue if I absolutely have to (i.e. a new feature depends on something that happened in Linus' tree after the merge window closed).
