That's not how things should work, especially for fairly trivial
changes. It requires reviewers to first spent time to review the patch
that adds clutter and later spend more time to review the one that
removes it. It's also easier to get a clean patch merged in the first
place, rather than a noisy one.
Anyway, here is my take at it: https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1049014/
Please help with testing for ROME, unless you disagree with the
approach.
Thanks
