Why this patch alone ?
The issue fixed by this patch is related to the patch 2 in a series under review
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/ZQGaSr+G5qu%2F8nJZ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
Is the patch 2 in this series already applied by some maintainers ?
Yes.

You have to fix the patch in the series sending a new iteration of the series.

This patch alone does not make sense.

Otherwise, the modifications to fix the issue seem good.

Hervé
