I noticed your selection of possible changes (and corresponding patch reviews).

* Thus I assumed that you are interested in further software evolution
  to some degree in such a design direction.
  Do you want that I omit your mail address from my patches?

* I picked also a few of your change ideas up for their application
  together with development tools I am familiar with.

I hope so.

This possibility can also be occasionally nice.

Such a view might be appropriate.

I hope that our collaboration will evolve further in constructive ways.

Advanced source code analysis can point several update candidates out.
An execution of a script for the semantic patch language (Coccinelle software)
indicates change possibilities around calls of the function “platform_get_irq”
in 74 source files of the software “Linux next-20200402” at the moment.
Source code search patterns can be extended after some clarification.
