---
This series does not introduce functionnal changes, only some
documentation and renaming to clarify the code.
---
Changes in v2:
- Dropped already applied patches
- Dropped useless patch as its content is deleted later
- Remove dependency on previous series
- Apply Maíra's comments
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240814-google-clarifications-v1-0-3ee76d7d0c28@bootlin.com
