Please take a look at: https://public-inbox.org/git/3E56B0FD-EBE8-4057-A93A-16EBB09FBCE0@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ and Peff's response to James Ramsay's email.

So actually I thought that I was helping Peff on this, though I know of course that it's also helping GitLab and everyone else. That's why I put Peff as the author of the patches. > Are you saying that you do not understand them > well enough to drive this patch series forward (e.g. address all reviews > and questions) and are basically trying to force Peff to contribute them > instead? Yeah, I don't understand them well enough to answer Jonathan Tan's questions. But no I am not trying to force Peff. I am trying to work with him. When he said he thought we should work on getting the change into upstream, I just thought he meant it and would be willing to help. > Ciao, > Johannes
