Thanks for your patience. We have completed testing with Brian’s patch 
as well as Jan’s patch series, along with a few additional issues we 
identified during integration. We have addressed those issues in our own 
fixes, and we plan to send the patches out for review today.

Brian’s patch:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/20251114160423.1518-1-briansune@gmail.com/

Jan’s patch series:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/cover/cover.1763140421.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com/

During our testing, we found an issue in Jan’s series; I will follow up 
separately on those to provide detailed feedback.

Once our patches are posted, we would appreciate your review and 
testing. Please let us know if you spot anything that still needs 
adjustment.

Thanks again,
Tien Fong
