Yes - but I need some additional context.

There wasn't a "Since v1..." changelog below the --- line in the patches. It's
always good practice to include it - but especially after this much time has
passed - it really helps page back in all the relevant issues.

After the discussion on this list, I'm not sure where we are with how this patch
series impacts the machines that Alex and Garbiele are working on.

What I would like is this: amongst yourselves, please agree on a solution and
provide a patch series with a Signed-off-by from the author(s) and at least a
Tested-by from the others.

If this is it, each of you please reply here stating as much.

Thanks,
