Jaswinder,

this is the last time I will mention this.

Please send a patch set with numbered patches. Your pull requests are
hard to review. Even maintainers send their patches this way for
review though the patches are available also in some git
repositories. Make these patches relative to a common tree (linux-2.6
or tip) or the maintainers tree (in this case also tip). Doing so,
others can apply the patches easily in a local repository. This will
reduce the efforts to review and test your patches and you will
probably get more feedback.

Thanks,

-Robert
