Hi Suzuki,

Seems like this patch is going to conflict with the below proposed change

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230817055405.249630-4-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/

Please let me know how should we resolve this conflict.

The above mentioned commit i.e 4e8fe7e5c3a5 seems to be a more recent one which
has triggered this problem. But would the problem be still there without that ?
Else 'Fixes:' tag would need changing.
