A "resend" is meant as a "ping" and the patch is always unmodified.

From [1]: "Don’t add “RESEND” when you are submitting a modified version
of your patch or patch series - “RESEND” only applies to resubmission of
a patch or patch series which have not been modified in any way from the
previous submission."

When a patch is not in -next yet or when it's been a week or longer and
I haven't received any feedback, I eventually follow up on it by
resending the same patch.

You're the first one to ask for a reason for resending.

They're the same - feel free to pick the original patch or the resend.

Thanks,
Thorsten
