Sure, I said 'old version' but the same applies to sending them in reply
to other series/patches.

This series was sent:

In-Reply-To: <20260219055737.769860-1-nirjhar@linux.ibm.com>

which is:

Subject: xfs: Add support for multi rtgroup shrink+removal

In better wording, please don't nest series under other series/patches,
or things like that. It works in some point cases, but in general it
just makes my life difficult to pull them from the list.
