Hi Maxwell,

There is a more substantial rework of this code undergoing revisions.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260331072453.6530-1-mdmahmudulhasan1511@xxxxxxxxx/

Both because that's been underway for a little time and because it makes
a wider set of improvements, I'd rather we took that one forwards.
However, as I noted in that thread, the ABI is likely to go away anyway as
part of dragging this driver into a state suitable for moving out of staging.
I don't mind cleaning it up as an intermediate state however as that graduation
from staging may take a while!

Thanks,

Jonathan
