Sure. It does not seem anyone involved cares about patchwork.

Are you okay with this one?

I'm going to handle it usual way:
- wait for feedback and modify accordingly
- collect tags
- resend as v2

Also, patch contains all your changes, so you should be credited
somehow - hence the need for v2 anyway.

What about:
[marcus: simplified error unwinding, error message removal]
Signed-off-by: Markus Elfring <elfring@users.sourceforge.net>

Feel free to propose anything else.
