Please wrap code according to the preferred limit expressed in Kernel
coding style (checkpatch is not a coding style description, but only a
tool). However don't wrap blindly (see Kernel coding style).

Do not attach (thread) your patchsets to some other threads (unrelated
or older versions). This buries them deep in the mailbox and might
interfere with applying entire sets. See also:

Really, just try yourself:

Can nvidia finally start using normal/expected process? There are tools
for that for a few years...

Entire Qualcomm, which upstreams magnitude more patches than Nvidia,
uses b4 (basically "must" use otherwise we will complain). Why it cannot
happen here?
