Dropping? Do you mean it will not be taken into consideration?

I tested this patch thoroughly, and it works very well. I am well
aware that kernel developers are reluctant to accept anything created
by AI or LLMs, of course. But please, I think you should review the
approach and perhaps use the idea to implement it in the way you think
is most appropriate.

Brite has put a lot of effort and time into this, and both he and I
have spent a great deal of time testing everything. It has been tested
as he describes on kernel 7.0 and on the backported versions. Side
effects have been addressed, and everything is finally working well.

All we ask is that it be taken into consideration for adding a
solution upstream.

I already have a .deb package that works for me on the Linux
distribution I use, but it would be wonderful to provide a fix to the
whole community so it works for everyone. Please, I kindly ask that
you take some time to review it.

Thanks so much, as always. Kind regards.
