Sure, no objections to the actual patch, here.


I'm curious how you generate the patch, since the headers seem
machine-generated, but it's clearly not from "git format-patch"

Personally, I don't mind patch attachments at all (though some
people do and prefer inline patches)

However, "git format-patch" allows us to use "git am" to apply the
patch while preserve authorship and commit message information,
making life easier for folks applying the patches :)

Here's the proposed patch I will apply, with gabor.kar...@gmx.at
as the author, and crediting you in the Reported-By:

https://80x24.org/20171118230550.24596-...@80x24.org/raw


Anyways, format-patch/am is the standard git workflow
for git.git and Linux kernel development.  The attachment thing
is/was frowned upon, but Torvalds does himself it on LKML *shrug*
