Please read Documentation/SubmittingPatches

In summary:
 - you are missing a Signed-off-by: line.
 - there is no diffstat.
 - the patch is an attachment, not inline in the email.
 - the recipients list of the email could be improved (see below).

If you had used scripts/get_maintainer.pl on your patch you'd have gotten 
a better list of recipients for your patch mail:
  $ scripts/get_maintainer.pl My_linux-3.5-rc6_patches
  Jens Axboe <[email protected]> (commit_signer:15/17=88%)
  Andrew Morton <[email protected]> (commit_signer:6/17=35%)
  Kay Sievers <[email protected]> (commit_signer:5/17=29%)
  Jeff Moyer <[email protected]> (commit_signer:2/17=12%)
  Dmitry Monakhov <[email protected]> (commit_signer:2/17=12%)
