Hi Jiayuan,

Thanks for the review.

Patch 1 and Patch 2 are actually parallel to each other. They both address
pre-existing issues that would be exposed and triggered once the changes
in Patch 3 are applied.

In a previous iteration, a test bot and another maintainer pointed out
that activating the code path without fixing the underlying issues first
could trigger a kernel panic.

I placed both prerequisite fixes (Patch 1 and Patch 2) before Patch 3.
This ensures that the fixes are already in place before the code path is
activated.

If you prefer a different order, please let me know and I will be happy to
adjust it.

Noted. I will correct the Fixes tag in v3.

Thanks for catching this. I will make sure to collect and carry Emil's
Reviewed-by tag in the upcoming v3.

Best regards,
