I see that those patches have been merged in mainline, which is great.
Just have one question: looks like your SoB is missing while you're
clearly reported as the committer. Since I found the same problem on
2614a208471e ("common: command: tempory buffer should have size of
command line buf"), I wanted to know if this is a common practice in
u-boot to not add SoBs when maintainers apply patches to their tree?

Regards,

Boris
