Yes, and as I said on that thread, to you directly:
	https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y2Ef0hK4rTmAoEUs@kroah.com/
the submission was done correctly, no one should have complained, and
the patches were applied by me to the correct branches without any
problems at all.

This is not an issue, this change is not needed at all.
