I understand your point, you want to modify directly based on the
original patch.
If we repost it,it may not  be v8  but  v9.

Last v8 patch: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250102072528.650926-1-guoweikang.kernel@gmail.com

I reduced the recipients for V8 because I remembered that the number
of CCs might
have exceeded the limit at the time, and there hadn't been any
comments on V7 for a long time

@Andrew, I can cooperate if necessary, I could merge them into one
patch and repost.
