Thanks. The changes in v2 of this series look fine.

In the future, to make life easier for reviewers, when rerolling a patch series, please include a cover letter ("git format-patch --cover-letter") and include the following in the cover letter:

* explain in your own words how the new version of the series differs
from the previous version

* provide a link to the cover-letter of the previous version (i.e.
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20240920082815.8192-1-algonell@gmail.com/)

* include a range-diff ("git format-patch --range-diff=") which
provides a mechanical representation of the differences between the
new version of the series and the previous version

Depending upon how dramatically the patch series changes from one version to the next, the range-diff may end up being unreadable gobbledygook, in which case you may instead want to include an interdiff ("git format-patch --interdiff").

If you're rerolling just a single patch instead of a full patch series, rather than including a cover letter, instead place the above information in the commentary section of the patch (immediately below the "---" line which follows your sign-off), and use "git format-patch --range-diff" (or "--interdiff") to insert the mechanical differences (which may appear in the commentary section or at the end of the patch, depending upon which version of Git you're using).
