Actually, I've been using LLMs for local review since v27 (or possibly v28).
However, different models tend to produce inconsistent feedback. Since Claude is
not accessible in my region, I'm using Qwen. This results in a clean local check,
but minor issues still arise after submission. Since v28, the issues have
been trivial-for instance, this time it was some incorrect references in
the comments.

I'm not entirely sure what specific criteria need to be met for acceptance, but
we are hoping to finalize this work as soon as possible. We have significant
follow-up work planned, including qstats, RSS, and XDP...

Thanks
