Hi, Rafael I'm now working on v5 of this series. Which 1. splits root causes in a more detailed way, 2. clarifies root causes in patch description with real bugs, and 3. is safer according to the known EC FW behaviors. So you can discard v3/v4 from the patchwork site. And I'll post v5 when everything is cleared to me.
