Having failed to hear from Jonas or Hernan in response to my question at:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkmm/ec97f28e-31ad-4a45-ac87-fab91e27d4ee@xxxxxxxxx/
, let me guess. Past contributions strongly suggest that Hernan looks after
herd7 changes and Jonas takes care of LKMM side of changes.
So my suggestion is to add a Co-developed-by tag of Hernan here:
Co-developed-by: Hernan Ponce de Leon <hernan.poncedeleon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

, and let me add a Tested-by:
Tested-by: Akira Yokosawa <akiyks@xxxxxxxxx> # herdtools7.7.58
Thanks, Akira
