After some research I found out that I was always one step behind because I was developing on the actual Linux kernel branch instead of using the Staging-next as my codebase. He wrote me to sent the patches that still apply over again with a new version tag so that's why this patch only contains 2 of them. I am still new at contributing to the Linux kernel and some things were not really clear to me at the beginning. I hope that you could still use these patches and I am trying to avoid misunderstandings like these. Do I still need to resend them and is there anything left for me to do with these?
