This note should not be added in log.

Hold on, should we CC stable when it's not fixing an issue?

Hi Coiby,

Hi Baoquan,


Just to make clear , is this patch fixing an issue, or it's just an
preparation for later patch's use?

Or I should ask in another way, any problem is solved with this patch?

At least it doesn't fix an issue that satisfy the criteria listed in https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html

You can put the note here, it won't be added to commit log when merged.
Maybe it can be removed when merged.

Thanks for the suggestion! Shall I send a version to fix this problem or
can I just bother the maintainer to remove it?



Otherwise, LGTM
