Hi Jakub,

I have updated the tag with the corrected author and committer details
and added Bjorn's ack:
https://github.com/shradhagupta6/linux/tree/shradha_v6.16-rc1

By 'please base the tag', did you mean we rebase the changes with rc2?
If so, I have also created a rc2 tag branch, JFYI
https://github.com/shradhagupta6/linux/tree/shradha_v6.16-rc2

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Shradha.
