Yes, Mark is really responsive!
Tomorrow I will send a new version without the regulator patch and the PSE
device index support.

Thanks Mark for taking the patch!

About the following two patches do you prefer to let them in the future budget
evaluation strategy support net series or should I send them directly in
regulator tree?
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20250103-feature_poe_port_prio-v4-17-dc91a3c0c187@bootlin.com/

If I send them in regulator tree do you think it would be doable to have them
accepted before the merge window. I will resend them with the fixes asked by
Krzysztof (convert miniwatt to milliwatt).
