That sentence reads funny.

In general, you seem to be explaining *what* your patches do and not
*why*. This is the wrong. Always explain the *why* - the *what* is
visible from the diff.

You probably need to brush up on
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst, section 2.

Didn't we agree that you'll verify whether family 0x18 is going to be
Hygon only?

What happened to that checking?

Same here.

What's up?
