Double-checked there are none in v5 (only the Suggested-by: tag)

I checked locally that `git am` does not warn about v5 patches. But
given that the patches are generated with `git format-patch` I suspect
they get garbled when you download them, could it be the case?

>  - checkpatch warns 7 times;

It now warns 4 times, three warnings are about updating MAINTAINERS (I
don't think there's need for this), the last one is about
CONFIG_ARM64_MTE_COMP_KUNIT_TEST not having three lines of description
text in Kconfig.

I did now.

In the other thread I mentioned that although 20x compression is
reachable, it may not lead to practical savings. I reworded the
description, having added the absolute numbers.

Done in v5
