Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 0/5] staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read and perform

Hi Greg and Dan,

Please ignore this v5 series. I realized after sending, that my local
git configuration truncated the subject lines in the patches.
I will send a corrected v6 shortly with the full subject lines.
Apologies for the noise.

Best regards, Luka
