Greg, I'm in the process of preparing backports for building 4.9 and 4.4 kernels with Clang. Going off of mka's very helpful: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/22/943, I've prepared the list of SHA's that were marked UPSTREAM (internal convention used to denote patch applies cleanly): https://gist.github.com/nickdesaulniers/fe995f4b7c52af8de1a283c0a53562d9. But it seems that some of these shas no longer apply cleanly. I was thus curious:
1. May I send you a pull request with the patches properly backported? I'm happy to do the work, just want a green light before backporting all of these patches. 2. Should I denote in any way if I had to modify any patch to get it to apply cleanly? This helps in code review, IMO. If so, what convention should I use?
