Hello,

Probably the above quoted patch was missed, which can be found on
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/20220726123921.29664-1-code@siddh.me/

This patch was posted more than 2 weeks ago, with changes as requested.

With the merge window almost ending, may I request for another look at
this patch?

Thanks,
Siddh
