Oh crap, sorry. This series went right past me since it somehow didn't get
flagged in my inbox. But Robs answer did, and then I assumed it was a late
answer to this series:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211004153640.20650-1-vincent.whitchurch@xxxxxxxx/

Which it of course isn't. But in my mind it was. Result: my above response
does not make any sense. I'll have to go to bed now, but I promise to write
a proper answer tomorrow.

Cheers,
Peter
