It's been more than a month since I post the patches. Maybe I should give a kindly ping. :-)
Heh! The problem is Martin only when picks up patches if the driver maintainer Acks them, and it happens very rarely until you have a *real* bugfix.
But since these patches are simple, so Martin should pick it up even if the patch doesn't receive any feedback.
If you ping, then certainly Martin will give you the same feedback.
Maybe you can make them happy by sending a syzbot bugfix ;)
