There's only one commit in that pull request, the patch from Roger is 
already in mainline from the last pull request. I think your mistake is 
looking at for-4.3/drivers - this branch is defunct as soon as Linus has 
pulled the initial bits for 4.3. After that, for-linus is the branch 
that carries fixes for the _current_ branch.
