I am confused. I see this patchset already applied (3 weeks ago!) to
above git repo:
https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/peter.chen/cix.git/log/?h=cix-for-next

in a branch claiming this is for the next. This is the branch which you
are supposed to be feeding next, so:
1. Are you properly feeding linux-next (see for example my beginners
talk from 2023 plumbers how to do it)?

2. If so, how can you send something for review - v7 - while this is
already applied and scheduled for next cycle (that is the meaning of
"for-next")?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
