Hi,

Please include a list of changes since the previous version of the patch
after the '---' separator. For an example see 'Changes from v2' in [1].

Have you spoken to Jhonata about these patches? It's good practice to
ask some questions and engage in discussion before taking over a patch
series someone else was working on.

Also, please ensure that you're following our policy on AI-assisted
contributions [2] if these patches were generated with AI.
