Hi Niklas:
Thank you very much.
I had already sent out the v5 series patch-set a few days ago.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-arm-kernel/cover/1722581213-15221-1-git-send-email-hongxing.zhu@xxxxxxx/
BTW, I'm a little confused about " without the patch in $subject,".
Do you mean to remove the "PATCH" from Subject of each patch?
v5:
Subject: [PATCH v5 1/5] dt-bindings: ata: Add i.MX8QM AHCI compatible string
v6 without patch in $subject:
Subject: [ v6 1/5] dt-bindings: ata: Add i.MX8QM AHCI compatible string
If yes, I can do that and add Frank's reviewed-by tag in the v6 series.

Best Regards
Richard Zhu
