Good to know that. If you could reply that before sending v2, I didn't have
questions about that.

If reviewers comment your patches and you fully agree them, you
can reply comments and send new patches in one or two days.
If some comments are uncertain, please discuss and convince reviewers
why/how it should be, and then send new version.
If you want to update a version and no one is commenting your patches yet,
reply the patch yourself to tell reviewers to ignore your patches, and
then send new version.

I suggest you can do that. I also want to know how/what you will handle
the things Bitterblue commented. Checking your reply will be simpler
than comparing v1 and v2 or checking v2 commit messages.
More, we don't know if we want to go back to see how we do the changes
in the future. These will be good records.

For me, I will review v2. Please leave your reply there if people have comments.
