Where is this patch supposed to go? Is this a stable backport patch, or something to go into Linus's tree?
I tested it in 4.9 and 4.14 kernels in OpenERT. So it is a stable backport patch.
What commit is being backported.
This commit resolve problem in mainline: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...
In current release this bug is fixed because w1-gpio use gpiod.
Then why can we not just use the actual patch that fixes this?
I think, mainline commit is big change. My patch is answer for problem in stable kernels, which is resolved in mainline.
Sorry. This was my first patch.
Please read: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html for how to submit a patch for the stable tree.
thanks,
