Hi Jon and anyone who is reading it,

here are your answers:

I guess I will just go ahead and do it through my work around and keep my
secrets (dont need to get my ideas to Microsoft, Google or even worse -
to Facebook, etc. for free). If you change your mind about it in future,
please do let me know.

I am fully aware. Wanted more feedback (not only feedback which I get from AI).
Thank you.

I wanted to contribute to linux kernel as I am linux user and it would
be nice to contribute to Linux community (kind of a proud moment for me).
Oh well.

Also, you should do code review, not ask useless questions if LLM wrote the
code. Even if I answered your questions, you wouldn't have to believe me -
so what's the point of asking. You should make decision based on the code
and if it is good for Linux kernel purely.

Cheers,
Peter
