Then the patches were sent:
- 20211210015620.2143555-1-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn on 10/12/2021
- 20211215033535.40422-1-zhou1615@umn.edu on 15/12/2021
They are extremely close but not similar, mostly indenting differs.

Both patches have the missing final "return 0" in amvdec_add_ts which is missing in my proposal.

But only 20211210015620.2143555-1-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn has the correct "if (ret)" in esparser_queue().
Patch 20211215033535.40422-1-zhou1615@umn.ed has a wrong "if (!ret)".
But when comparing, 20211215033535.40422-1-zhou1615@umn.edu is an almost exact copy of my proposal, minus the fixes and the bogus return check.

To be honest, there is a limited way to fix this, it's probable 20211215033535.40422-1-zhou1615@umn.edu was written independently from
my proposal since there is a bug return check, and 20211210015620.2143555-1-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn was rewritten from my proposal.

Since 20211215033535.40422-1-zhou1615@umn.ed has a bogus return check, it should be naked.

I'll only ask 20211210015620.2143555-1-jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn to be resent with a "Suggested-by" and indentation fixed like my proposal.

Neil
