Hi, Mike,
Yeah actually that's what I'd prefer for most of the time. But I'm
trying to avoid doing that because I wanted to keep the credit of the
original authors, not only for this single patch, but also for the
whole series. Meanwhile, since this work has been there for quite a
few years (starting from 2015), IMHO keeping the old patches mostly
untouched at least in the RFC stage might also help the reviewers if
they have read or prior knowledge of the previous work.
And if the patch cannot even stand on itself (this one can; it only
introduces new functions) I'll do the merge no matter what.
Please correct me if this is not the good way to do.
Thanks!
