It's not obvious to me either. Please add that comment.

BTW, for some reason Doug's response didn't get to patchwork:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/1603904469-598-1-git-send-email-pillair@codeaurora.org/

Though I do see it in linux-wireless, so most likely this was a
temporary glitch in patchwork. But it's just worrisome as nowadays I
only check the comments in patchwork before I apply the patch.
