For future submissions, unless explcitly requested otherwise, please
wait for a series being processed before posting the follow-ups.
Otherwise any change requested to earlier patches could possibly/likely
need changing  (and reposting) all the following.

## Form letter - net-next-closed

The merge window for v6.8 has begun and we have already posted our pull
request. Therefore net-next is closed for new drivers, features, code
refactoring and optimizations. We are currently accepting bug fixes
only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after January 22nd.

RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.

See:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#development-cycle
