This is just preparatory work which allows to move some initialisation that currently is done in the per transfer hook .config to an earlier point in time in the next few patches. There is no change in behaviour introduced by this patch.

The patch alone shouldn't be needed for stable and there is no indication that it's a dependency for another patch. Is this an oversight?
Other than that: IMHO the subject for this type of report could be improved. Currently it's:
Subject: Patch "spi: imx: add a device specific prepare_message callback" has been added to the 4.19-stable tree
The most important part of it is "4.19-stable", but that only appears after character column 90 and so my MUA doesn't show it unless the window is wider than my default setting. Maybe make this:
Subject: for-stable-4.19: "spi: imx: add a device specific prepare_message callback"
?
Another thing I wonder about is: The mail contains
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <[email protected]> know about it.
but it wasn't sent to [email protected].
Best regards
Uwe

It is, appologies. I've been traveling and my patch-shuffling-fu isn't doing well with conference/jetlag.
This is a dependency for 00b80ac93553 ("spi: imx: mx51-ecspi: Move some initialisation to prepare_message hook.").

I borrowed the format from Greg, and I'd say that if we make changes then we should be consistent with eachother.
No objections on my end; maybe I'd even go further and try and send one email per patch rather than one mail per patch/tree.
Or... finally drop the stable-commits mailing list altogether? Does anyone still need this (vs. just looking at -rcs)?
Greg?

Good point. I figured we want to reduce the spam on stable@ since you'd see a mail about this patch in the -rc mails, and so stable@ isn't cc'ed, but I can definitely add a reply-to header.
Thanks!

Sure, I can change my script, but better yet, can you send a patch against this file:

one-per-patch isn't going to work, sorry, as I push out queues separately.

Greg?
Yes, we still need it, we want a public record of what is merged, and that is what the mailing list archives provide.
