I have applied, but after tweaking the commit title. Indeed "update
second patch" is very fuzzy. It should instead describe what is the
goal of the commit, not how you achieve it. The fact that you need to
update the second patch to fix static linking scenarios involving
mbedtls is of secondary importance.

Your SoB...

... should have been *after* the commit you're adding to explain the
changes you've done.

I've fixed both issues and applied. Many thanks for looking again at
the issue following my initial review, and providing an updated version
of the patch!

Best regards,

Thomas
