Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo-next branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo-next branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

FYI [if applicable to your patch], as per Linus' policy change, also
fixes are mostly routed through for-next unless the fix is for a
commit introduced in the most recent cycle or is clearly a regression
fix.
