Hi Heiner,
I only Reviewed-by this patch, not the whole series. I always
explicitly state it if I do. Patch 3/3 looks good but since it's at24,
it's probably going to go through my tree anyway (possibly with the
rest of this series), so no need for the tag.

You're contradicting the previous paragraph here.
