Sathya, I've been rather busy with your own patches and your colleagues
TDX patches. I've clearly communicated to you which patches I plan to
provide a review for. I'll get to them, although not quite at the speed
you would like.


My impression so far is, for TDX patch submissions, you usually reply to
the patch submission/comments in 1-2 days (sorry if this assumption is
incorrect). Since I did not see any major objections for this patch, I
was just checking with you to understand if this patch review is pending
due to something missing from my end. My intention was not to rush you,
but just to understand if it needs some work from my end.

Sorry if the reminder emails trouble you. Since we are aiming for v5.14
merge window, I am trying to avoid any delays from my end.

If you would like to get a quicker review, I'd highly suggest you go
find some of your TDX colleagues' code that needs its quality improved
and help by providing them reviews. Reviews are a two-way street, not
just a service provided by maintainers to contributors.

You could also make good use of your time by going back over all of the
review comments I've made up to this point and doing a pass over your
work to ensure that I don't have to continue to repeat myself and waste
review efforts.

I have considered your comments and fixed the common issues reported by
you in this patch-set. But when addressing recent comments and while
updating the commit log, some of these issues got introduced again. I will
try to avoid them in future.
