BTW, from LWN article [1] I get to know the 4.18 merge window seems to be delayed; I will check with you offline for when will be good time to send to LKML.
The merge window hasn't been delayed. It opens on the day the official kernel release happens and lasts for two weeks. In this case 4.17 was released on the 3rd of June, which means the merge window will close on the 16th and a new 4.18-rc1 released on the 17th. You can send you patches as soon as you have a 4.18-rc1 to base your work on.
Yeah, will monitor the 4.18-rc1 releasing in next a few days. Thanks for detailed explaination.
