Sorry, I was not meaning to ignore feedback. I interpreted "this was
sent in reply..." as "Pierre-Louis's message was sent in reply..." not
"the v2 patch was sent in reply...".

For the record, the documentation for sending patches has the "Explicit
In-Reply-To headers" section, which frowns on doing this for multi-patch
series but never mentions this for single patches. I have never had a
maintainer complain about me doing this in the over three years that I
have been doing this. It is helpful for me as a developer to see the
review history of a patch at times so keeping them altogether is nice
but if this is going to be a problem, I'll just get in the habit of
providing links to the previous postings on lore.kernel.org in the
changelog section. Maybe the documentation could be updated to frown
upon adding In-Reply-To headers to new versions of patches period? I can
draft up a patch to clarify that.

Do you want me to resend v3 without an In-Reply-To header or can you
pick it up as is?

Cheers,
Nathan
