Because the first mail in the mbox file is the cover letter, not a real
patch, thus contains no code changes and couldn't be applied by default.
Try
b4 shazam 20260510-b4-k1-clk-reset-upstream-dts-v1-0-db0b0503ee44 at riscstar.com
instead, which applies the series cleanly at least on my side. With
git am you might skip application of the first mail manually by
git am --skip
and continue with rest of the series.
