Hi Mathieu,

I am curious what do you mean by pull request?

Jassi had included remoteproc mailing list when sent the original patch
here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-remoteproc/20260209234430.512492-1-jassisinghbrar@gmail.com/

Since then no other change was introduced in that patch. Isn't it enough
for it to pick-up for rproc-next? I am just asking from the process
point of view, what should have been done differently?

If all looks good, then I think you can pick up original patch from him
for rproc-next, as the same patch got merged in the linux-next.

Thanks,
Tanmay
