Sorry about that. I'll be sure to add maintainers to Patch 1 in the
next versions.
I tried to follow : https://lwn.net/Articles/585782/ , but I think the

Noted. Perhaps we can use cros_ec_cmd_xfer() instead of
cros_ec_cmd_xfer_status(). That I think will
keep readability the same and remove the need for comments.
