And by the way, just in case you're not aware: you can trigger a full CI
run with veristat jobs and AI reviews in kernel-patches/bpf github repo
if you have a write access there (I believe you do, lmk if not).
Just push a branch to kernel-patches/bpf repo and open a PR against
bpf_base. This should be enough for the bots to iterate.
