I reported fastrpc bug in
Feb,2023.(https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230216014120.3110-1-k1rh4.lee@xxxxxxxxx)

And Srinivas recommended this patch code for patch v2.
That's why I sent this patch v2 however, I haven't received any reply
after that.

I just want to know the next step for patching this code.
Should I just keep waiting ? Or Please let me know if I need to
provide you with more information.

(Ps. I'm sorry, i re-send this reply because of missing text-mode )

Best regards.
