Understood. Sorry for the noise. I'm still new to U-Boot mailing list, so I'm
learning the rules and timings progressively. I was not asking for priority over
others. It's just that you said you handled such patches when the next merge
window opens, but then nothing happened when the merge window opened, even after
a few weeks, so I was wondering why. Now it's clear.

Best regards,
Benoît
