Hi Jarkko,

This is the second version of this patch. The first one is reviewed by Peter who give out some good advices.

It is my first time to submit patch to upstream(main line),  and I am not very clear with the submitting rule.
So, could you please give me a template to record the version and changing log?
In my previous experience, I will attach a patch-0000 to record version and describe the background of this patch.
But how to show the changing log when submit patch into mainline, I am not very  clear.

Regards,
Limeng
