The February 24th feature freeze is coming up very quickly. We therefore need any kernel patches that are to be included into the 11.05 Linaro kernel release to be submitted to linaro-dev (CCing nicolas.pitre@linaro.org) as well as upstream as soon as possible. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that they will be included in the upcoming Linaro kernel release.
I suppose by submitting upstream, you mean that the patches need to show up in one of the trees that are part of linux-next, right?
The development phase for 2.6.38 is closed, and the merge window for 2.6.39 will not be open until the Linaro feature freeze, so that is the only place where patches heading for upstream can go at the moment.
