Note for next time: I sent out a Reviewed-by tag on this patch on the
previous version. Please include those tags on the future versions.
The only time it's appropriate to not include the tag is if you make
changes to the patch beyond a trivial change.

Also you may want to consider using b4 for your workflow since it really
simplifies your workflow. There's some documentation available at:

https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/

Basically, here's a quick workflow of what I do:

# Start with a clean branch (say today's linux-next)
# Create a new b4-managed branch
b4 prep -n my-branch-name
# Apply your patches
b4 prep --edit-cover
b4 prep --auto-to-cc
b4 prep --check
b4 send --dry-run
# Send out your patch series for real
b4 send

Later if you need to send out a new version, just use the same b4
managed branch. It'll track the patch version number for you (the
PATCH v2 in the subject).

You can use 'b4 trailers'
(https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/trailers.html) to pick
up tags from the list.

There's also a b4 web submission endpoint you can use instead of sending
it through a SMTP server:
