Hi Kees,
thanks for doing a v2 of your patchset.
As I saw Jason Yan providing some "uninitialized_var() macro" patches
to the MLs I pointen him to your tree "v1".
BTW, I have tested your "v1" against Linux v5.7 (see [1]) - just
yesterday with Linux v5.7.5-rc1.
Is it possible to have a v2 of this patchset on top od Linux v5.7 - if
you do not mind.
Thanks.
Best regards,
