Thank you for testing all of this on actual hardware. You can either
send out the little issues like this that need corrected and I'll
collect everything up, and send out a V2 once you are done with testing.
Or, you can just take my patches, incorporate the fixes, and add me
with a Co-developed-by tag to the relevant patches. Whatever is easier
for you. I assume that the latter approach may be easier since you're
already making the changes in your tree for testing.
