You keep on repeating this since I first posted this patch
in December last year, but as I already wrote back then:

https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/8b3946e0-7eb5-4e1f-9708-1f6cfda95e1a@xxxxxxxxxx/

"Unfortunately I no longer have any contacts inside Dell"

And Paul Menzel reached out back to gkh back then asking
if Greg had any contacts in he did not have any contacts
either.

Dell.Client.Kernel@xxxxxxxx is the official address listed
for Dell drivers under drivers/platform/x86 .

The email address which I'm using is *THE* one which Dell has
provided for contacting about Dell pdx86 drivers. I really
don't know what else you expect me to do here.

You just keep repeating that Dell should be contacted about
this and multiple people (me and Andy) have already pointed
out that Dell does not have any other contact info. Repeating
the same remark over and over does not change things.

As I mentioned in my other email too, if you think you can do
better feel free to try and contact Dell your self, something
which you could already have done the first time you mentioned
this in December 2023, back when I already said I don't have
any other contact info for Dell.

This is just plain hurtful I do not believe I have ever done
anything to earn this level of distrust from you.

I am hurt that you cannot at least show the common decency to
assume good intentions from my side.

Hans
