Not a good reason. You wrote four lines of which all are redundant,
because you still did not prove we need to have support for WCD937x
Soundwire interface.

Look incomplete.

But anyway, you did the same as all patches before, so it won't be
applied. There is really no point in sending the same three four times.
Nothing will change, no one will apply it, unless you finally fix the
address list.

You also Cc-ed here completely random addresses... E.g. why is this
relevant to Xilinx?

Best regards,
