Hi Corinna,
> can you check your patch again? It fails to apply for me against current main.
Please accept my apologies for the previous patch. I had generated it from a
diff branch in my fork, which caused it not to apply cleanly. I've now
regenerated the patch against the current main, and it should apply cleanly.
> Also, would you mind to add a Fixes: tag?
I've also added the appropriate Fixes tag & realized I forgot to include the
Signed-off-by line in the previous version, that's been corrected now.
Thanks,
Thiru
