I have this ontop of 5.10 along with most comments integrated. Now, I'm thinking if I start sending those pieces which belong into the main process documentation, the bikeshedding that is going to ensue is going to be insane. And we have day jobs too, you know. :) Thus, I'm also thinking that I should do this piecemeal and once we've all agreed on one aspect and you've applied it, Jon, I'll carve out and send the next. Rinse and repeat. How does that sound, makes sense? Thx. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. https://people.kernel.org/tglx/notes-about-netiquette
