It worked! This is for the v2, that I just sent on top of linus upstream from today, commit a13307e97d5c54b65720bb71fa379960ded1e51a which is also mentioned in the sashiko review in "baseline" section. https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260807172421.3875982-1-usama.arif%40linux.dev Sashiko found no regressions! So hopefully the patch is in a good shape. Thanks, Usama
