netdev maintainers: Jiri marked this with Reviewed-by, but was this review
what caused "Changes Requested" to be the status set for this patch set in
patchwork?

If needed, I'll send a v7 with the changes Jiri suggested and add the
"Reviewed-by" since the changes are cosmetic, but I wanted to make sure
this was the reason.  

Yes, I think that's it.  

OK, thanks for letting me know. I wasn't sure if it was because of the
netdev/source_inline which marked 1/4 as "fail" because of the inlines
added.

Does that need to be changed, as well?

For background our preference is to avoid using static inline in C
sources, unless the author compiled the code and actually confirmed
the code doesn't get inlined correctly. But it's not a hard
requirement, and technically the code is under fs/.

In general the patchwork checks are a bit noisy, see here the top left
graph of how many of the patches we merge are "all green":
https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/checks.html
Some of the checks are also largely outside of our control (checkpatch)
so consider the patchwork checks as automation for maintainers. 
The maintainers should respond on the list if any of the failures 
are indeed legit.
