If they haven't looked after three days then they won't look. Greg will
look over the patches but everyone else is done.

If you can redo this patch without changing any of the others then just
redo it. But otherwise I would prefer if you do it in a follow on
patch. It gets tiresome to review patchsets over and over.

Joe's comment on [PATCH v2 21/24] is correct. Technically the original
code was buggy as well, but using dev_err() means it will generate a
popup notification in Gnome so the new code is worse. Redo that one.
Hopefully, you can just redo the one patch without redoing the following
3 patches.

So either send a single patch to Joe's comment, or send an email in
reply to Joe's comment, "Ok. I will redo the last 4 patches". Use the
--in-reply-to option of git to send email in reply to a thread. Pratice
in an email to yourself before sending it to the list.
