Hmm. I changed the subject to grab Shawn's attetion.

But his acks should not be needed for forward progress. Yes, it would
be good, but he does not react -- so just reorder the series so that
dts changes come last, then apply the parts you can apply: driver can
go in.

And actually... if maintainer does not respond at all, there are ways
to deal with that, too...

Best regards,
