As those are spontaneous small fixes, now I merged all three patches
on topic/firewire branch (on top of the for-linus including your
previous FireWire core fix), merged back to for-next branch for 6.3.

But, I have no will to keep doing this in a long term.  I suppose the
best would be that you'd step up as a maintainer for FireWire
stack...
