Hi Hans-Frieder

A few process issues first, before i get to the patches themselves.

We are currently in the merged window, so net-next is closed.

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainer-netdev.html

You can send patches, but please mark them as RFC.

You have one patch with the wrong subject, not net-next, but net-dev.

Your emails are not threaded together.

These last two point suggest you are not using the tools correctly.
You should have all the code on one branch, then use

git format-patch --cover-letter --subject-prefix="RFC PATCH v2 net-next" HEAD~42

and then use git send-email to actually send the patches. That will
cause them to be threaded together.

Alternatively look at b4 prep:

https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/prep.html

It handles a lot of the details for you.
