Hi Jeffy,

You need to be more careful about the addressee's of your patches. No
one on To/CC is a maintainer or a sufficiently-targeted mailing list. I
doubt any of the maintainers will read your patch. (I've added
alsa-devel for you, but given my understanding of at least Mark's
patchwork workflow -- and of general patch etiquette -- it's important
the patch is actually sent there in the first place.)

Probably worth resending.

Brian
