Hi Muhammad,

I was about to reply about the patch's From ;-) when I noticed there
was an email from me that I didn't send. Also, the email address
should bounce as it does not exist anymore which is a bit annoying.

Thanks to work on this, before sending another version, apart from not
messing up the patch's From you should also need to look at the commit
notes, is basically a copy of my latest patch and is outdated, you
should explain what you did new and not copy what I did in the past,
so that also needs a rewrite. I suppose you already looked at the
the latest version which is at, it is a good practice to point to the
latest version so people can look at what was discussed before.

In the discussion there are some comments to address, please make sure
to address all of them, or explain why not, and give as much context
as possible because follow discussions that happened 2 years ago.
Sometimes it is difficult to follow.

Best regards,
  Enric
