Please be sure to add note about using AI to patch submissions,
and link to original bug reports you are trying to fix.

Possibly some of this is useful, but you need to do significant tests
with real hardware if you are proposing non-trivial changes.

If you are referencing publicly available upstream driver source, then
be clear about that and provide links.  'Reverse Engineering' could mean a lot of things,
some of which is grey area for patch submission.  If you talked some AI bot
into finding non public source, or if it can actually generate useful c code out of
vendor binaries, then I am not sure how legit that is to even post.

Thanks,
Ben
