Hi Adrian,

Thanks for taking a look and testing the patch!

I have made the changes you mentioned and
uploaded the new version of the patch here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240711214438.3920702-1-quic_obabatun@quicinc.com/

Please let me know if you need me to do anything else.

Regards,
Oreoluwa
