The other problem I noticed was stylistic: when I applied your patches for
testing even Git complained about their cleanliness ...
To quote from Documentation/SubmittingPatches:
4) Style check your changes.
Check your patch for basic style violations, details of which can be
found in Documentation/CodingStyle. Failure to do so simply wastes
the reviewers time and will get your patch rejected, probably
without even being read.
At a minimum you should check your patches with the patch style
checker prior to submission (scripts/checkpatch.pl). You should
be able to justify all violations that remain in your patch.
Please make your patches less sloppy!
Thanks,
Ingo
