Re: [PATCH] tty: fix atomicity violation in n_tty_read

[Gui-Dong Han]

Hi

I apologize for any confusion caused by my reference to Linux 5.17 in
the patch description. I'm currently working on a project involving
kernel static analysis to identify atomicity violations, and part of
this work involves comparison with a previous study that supports up
to Linux 5.17. Therefore, I initially ran my tool on 5.17 to filter
potential bugs that are still unaddressed in the upstream. I want to
clarify that the patch was developed and tested on linux-next. I
realize now that this may have led to misunderstandings, and I will
ensure clearer communication in future submissions.
My experience with Linux kernel contributions is still growing, and I
acknowledge that my recent submission might have been hasty and lacked
thorough consideration, especially regarding the critical nature of
n_tty_read and the potential impacts of the patch, like performance
concerns. I will take more care in future assessments before
submitting patches and continue to familiarize myself with the rules
and practices of the Linux kernel community.

Thanks,
Han
