Is the only reason this is split off from 9/9 because you're injecting a 8/9 commit for the coccinelle rule change, and wanted to find some logical cut-off between the two? > Signed-off-by: Teng Long <dyroneteng@xxxxxxxxx> For both this & 9/9 this seems to mostly/substantially be code I wrote and submitted as part of https://lore.kernel.org/git/RFC-patch-6.7-eac299f06ff-20211217T131635Z-avarab@xxxxxxxxx; The convention we use in such cases is to retain the "Author" header and just add your own Signed-off-by to patches you're modifying/splitting up.
