This is the first versions of this patch-set, but it starts as v2, as it contains three patches and a few bits that were part of an earlier and bigger patch-set. This incorporates review feedback given there. The last patch in this series is mostly new, but includes a few bits from patch 4 and 5 of the earlier series. Ciao, Thorsten v2: - initial version with 3 patches taken from this abandoned patch-set: https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1761481839.git.linux@leemhuis.info/ - Rewrite the section at the end and make it a proper appendix; based on patches 4 and 5 from above patch-set - Incorporate various mostly minor review feedback. Among them: - Drop the change switching from single to double quotes. - Point out that feedback can be sent as a patch, too – and add a patch to sync the text about feedback with two other documents that contain a para which this section is based on.
