Hi Raghu,

If this was a true RESEND, the version number should not have changed.
See: Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

Alas, this v6 has changes from v5 that are not listed here, so this
is not a RESEND, it is a new version.

Both patches were rebased, and in Patch 1 that led to a changed
function name too.

What to do?
How about you send a reply to this cover letter with the v5->v6
changelog, and let's see if that's clear enough.

Thanks,
Alison
