NAK, conflicting patch with Kaanapali, without any reason. Squash the
patches.

This entire split is just huge churn, huge duplication of work and quite
a lot of review put onto the community. You should have coordinated your
work better.

I am disappointed because you just don't think about the reviewing
process, about what maintainers should do with that. You just send what
was told you to send.

Explain to us - why do we want to have two 99% same patches sent the
SAME DAY, from the same company, sent in completely separate patchsets
so any simplified review will not be possible, and do same work - review
and applying - twice, instead of having only one?

Why maintainers should accept this?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
