Can you for future updated patches please use the ususal [PATCH v2],
[PATCH v3], etc. prefix ?
Also please document the changes per version after the cutline, e.g. :
```
---
Changes in v2:
- Added fixes tag which added current_freq_khz. Note after this
tag there is reorg of code, so need manual backport for some versions.
I will separately submit to stable trees after merge.
```

Hans
