For both patches: Reviewed-by: Michael Opdenacker <michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com> ... and merged into "master-next". Cheers Michael.

Oops, I realize you should run a few git commands to have a proper identity in your git commits. See https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Fixing_your_From_identity Don't need to send your patches again, I will fix your last two commits by myself. Thanks in advance for next time. Cheers Michael.

My bad, I forgot to add --identity=yocto when running git send-email! I now added it to the local git config for the various yocto repositories, so it hopefully won't happen again. > Thanks in advance for next time. Thank you very much! Cheers, Luca
