This is disappointing; you're someone who's been contributing for quite
some time now, I'd really expect you to be faimilar with the process of
submitting patches and able to identify answers to your questions.

For something like this I'm just not even going to look at what's
required to fix up by hand, sorry.

Of course neither of those entries list me either yet you managed to
figure out that you should send the patch to me.  The same process that
helps you identify that things should be submitted to the subsystem
maintainers should allow you to identify where they're likely to try to
apply changes.  Or simply looking at how other similar patches get
merged.

Again this is something I'd really expect you to be familiar with.  As
ever if there are changes you would like to see integrated into the
kernel then please submit them using the normal patch submission
process.
