Hi Mathieu,
The qcom_q6v5_dump_segment code has changed in the latest tip. That's 
why I had to
make modifications to my patch. Sibi reviewed this patch as he made the 
above
changes to mss driver and he has reviewed and tested from his side. He 
has
also created a minor fix in the driver to make inline dumps work for 
mss.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11637159/

I removed the reviewed-by because I made some modifications to this 
patch
and was not sure if the reviewed-by still applied. Let me know if i 
should add it
again.
