Please disregard this patch.
I'm now sending a similar response as I'm sending to my other patch
submissions, which is the following:

I now consider my initial view of the issue as a spelling error, incorrect. I
would be changing the license and IANAL. I'm also not the copyright holder
which I believe is needed to change the license.

Apologies for the noise.

Glad to reply, but I see your reply above as if it is written by
a bot. Care to vary your sentences?

I already got a bounce as I am now considered a spammer :-/

So now I got to figure out how to fix this clusterfsck, without being seen as
a spammer/bot, while also trying to minimize the burden on others.

I couldn't agree more with (the first paragraph of)
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
and I therefor consider this a legal issue and not a spelling one.
I can't answer the legal issue, hence the request for retraction.

Regards,
Diederik

No, I don't think anybody sees you as that. Please do not worry about
Bagas; he is fond of unnecessarily picking holes in the work of others.

You tried a fix which, as was pointed out, was not the right direction.
Just drop it and move onto your next contribution, and all will be well.

Thanks,
