Again, I got trapped by the lack of the history when getting the patches via
pwclient.
On the last recent case, this patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/91888/
Is clearly not ready for merge, when looking via web, but if you get the patch
via
pwclient view, it gets:

Subject: Add FE_CAN_PSK_8 to allow apps to identify PSK_8 capable DVB
devices
Date: Sun, 11 Apr 2010 09:12:52 -0000
From: Klaus Schmidinger <[email protected]>
X-Patchwork-Id: 91888
Message-Id: <[email protected]>
To: [email protected]
The enum fe_caps provides flags that allow an application to detect
whether a device is capable of handling various modulation types etc.
A flag for detecting PSK_8, however, is missing.
This patch adds the flag FE_CAN_PSK_8 to frontend.h and implements
it for the gp8psk-fe.c and cx24116.c driver (apparently the only ones
with PSK_8). Only the gp8psk-fe.c has been explicitly tested, though.

So, based on the presented "history", the patch looked sane and ready for
merging.
"pwclient get" also doesn't help, as it keep removing the patch discussions.
It would be really nice and important to avoid mistakes, if "pwclient view" xml
implementation could provide
not only the patch plus the acks, but also the comments that the patch may have
received. Something like:
<headers>
<patch description>
<ack's/sob's>
---
<comments from the others, if there are any>
This way, we avoid the need of going to the patch history and to the ML for
every single patch
that patchwork catches, just to double check if the patch actually got nacked
or are just a RFC.
