Almost too good attention to process here, I hope you used some
tooling and didn't do all this by hand...

I reviewed it by applying the lot with b4 on a branch off
my devel branch, and

git diff devel..HEAD

which shows what the goal of the patches is and since the
kernel clearly looks better after than before the patches:
Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@xxxxxxxxxx>

Or I can just merge this branch into my devel (for v6.7)
branch, and offer you the same as immutable.
Which is my plan.

Shall I just do it?

Yours,
Linus Walleij
