I noticed that this did not apply cleanly (the SPI patch did not apply
cleanly), so I asked for the next version to be based on 6.6-rc1 or
Linus' master branch.

Note I did not ask for a new version to be send right away, but
I'm afraid there has been a bit of miscommunication and instead
of rebasing the next version based on further review Wentong has
send out a new rebased version immediately, sorry about that.

Regards,

Hans
