Just a note, author sends and resends same patches without addressing
feedback. At least one case was very dubious or just incorrect code, and
author just ignored it and sent it again to hide the previous
discussion, so I suspect LLM generated content.

I did not review the code here, but please carefully review all patches
from this author before applying and simply do not trust that this looks
like a fix.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
