Hello,

the changes since (implicit) v1 that is available at
https://lore.kernel.org/driver-core/20260925182041.1025371-2-u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com (local)

 - new patch fixing an already existing tiny issue that Sashiko found
 - Fix a build failure that I found before sending v1, but failed to
   squash into the patch
 - Added review tags by Bradley Morgan and Armin Wolf

IMHO this taint is superior to TAINT_FORCED_BIND, but I hesitate to drop
the forced-bind one. On the other hand it might be better to drop it now
(before hitting a mainline release) to not burn the used letter to
indicate that taint?!

Best regards
Uwe
