I fear that I could misunderstand what you mean. I'm not that familiar
with how it works. Please enlighten me, thanks.

Are you saying I don't need to send a new version of the current patch
series, only send a patch after this series is applied?

A standalone patch goes like this based on this patch series:

If that is so, what is the status of the current patch?
