This series is a set of relatively small SOF changes after the big batch merged last week (Thanks!). Since we are very close to the merge window and in May where most of the world takes time off, it'd be perfectly understandable if those patches were queued for 5.3, after feedback and corrections as needed.
The headline thing I see when this pops up in my inbox is yet another 20 patch series for these DSPs, I'm not going to notice the size of the patches on a first pass. As I think you've noticed there's a lot of reviewer fatigue setting in with this stuff, one thing that'd really help here is if there were some help from Intel people with review for the DPCM code.
I can certainly understand reviewer fatigue, i've had to put a time limit on daily reviews to keep my sanity, but I don't get your last point. These patches were submitted and reviewed by Intel people on GitHub, what you see here is the result of multiple iterations precisely to make sure the patches are acceptable for upstream. we've set the goal of having two Intel aprovers for each patch. Can you elaborate on how we can make your life simpler? FYI we are going to have a number of fixes coming in the next 2 months for HDaudio support, changes to IPC/power flows to support D0ix states and SoundWire, 3rd party firmware module support, etc, so I really want to make sure you are comfortable with SOF-related patches, their level of maturity and the submission rate.
