Hi Alexey,
Thank you for sending the patch over! However, if possible, can you send
it as plain text without any multi-part MIME involved? This is as per:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html
People have scripts to handle patches submissions, plus there is automation
that relies on e-mails being just plain text with inline patches.
Sorry for the trouble, and thank you for understanding.

If possible, it would be nice to mention that this needed to make sure
that there is enough space to correctly NULL-terminate the ID string.
Thank you!
Krzysztof
