Hi,

I have tested this patchset v3 on top of Linux v5.8-rc6 with a
selfmade llvm-toolchain (snapshot version: v11+git-e05c7e400f3a plus
cherry-picked 8b354cc8db41).

This happened out of interest if this is in good shape together with
my Debian AMD64 system.
I checked my build-log and dmesg-output and it looks good.

Feel free to add my...

Thanks.
