Sadly this patch triggers an error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./tools/patman/patman", line 9, in <module>
    from argparse import ArgumentParser, BooleanOptionalAction
ImportError: cannot import name 'BooleanOptionalAction' from
'argparse' (/usr/lib/python3.8/argparse.py)


I've dropped it and the next one. Can you please take a look?
