John, if we use subject lines such as:

[PATCH RFT] foobar: bizbaz

That means the patch is _not_ submitted for inclusion, yet.
The RFT means Request-For-Testing. Ususally, if I send out such
patches, they are completely untested. I usually compiletest them,
but that's it.
But in future I can also put a comment into the mailbody that
explains why to not apply it, yet.

For this particular patch, please leave it in now. I'm pretty
sure it is correct. So actual testing will be done upstream now. ;)
