I see on the list v1 (implicit, it's not versioned), v5 and v7. I'm
curious to know if there's a pattern, we need a few more versions to
figure it out :-)

Jokes aside, Isaac, you should increment the version number only when
sending a new public version.

It doesn't seem to be needed indeed.

Can you send a new version that fixes these two issues (checkpatch
warning and unnecessary cast), as well as address the comment on 2/2 ?
