OK, I will change it. It's a bit tiring to discuss the same concept with
different maintainers and each time receive different point of view or
each time need to convince that the other way is preferred. I already
had such talks with Mark, so it is just easier change patch. Also, I
tend to keep forgetting all the arguments. :)

Let me just share also other maintainer's point of view:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230311183534.1d0dfd64@jic23-huawei/

Anyway, I appreciate your feedback and thank you for picking up the
first patch. I'll rework this one.

Have a nice day!

Best regards,
Krzysztof
