Oh, now I see what happened. I recently sent another series that touches the
same file (tools/testing/selftests/devices/test_discoverable_devices.py):
"kselftest: devices: Allow running test on more platforms"
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240613-kselftest-discoverable-probe-mt8195-kci-v1-1-7b396a9b032d@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

That was already merged through the usb tree, and is present on next (on which I
based this series).

In this case I imagine it's best if this series gets picked through the usb
tree, right? Even if I rebase on kselftest's next, there will be conflicts.

Thanks,
Nícolas
