(7) Some more admin stuff: (7a) every patch in this series should carry the following line in the commit message: Ref: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3249 (7b) whenever you post a new version of the patch set, please add a new comment to <https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3249>, linking the just-posted version (the cover letter email) from the mailing list archive. This is important in case we want to review the evolution of the patch series later. It's more difficult to find relevant email threads later than to link each posting immediately in the bugzilla ticket.
