Sorry, I hadn't even thought of that but it makes sense.

Thanks for doing that and the hand holding. I think I can manage to
get it right next time. :)

I have one DTS patch I would like to get into 5.14 for the watchdog

Is it still ok to send a PR for that one or is it too late now? I
think I read the cut off is around rc6.

Thanks,
