This is my 1st time doing a patch series. Let me rebase and resubmit
each with a more descriptive title.

But 1st do I still need to put the patch number in the series? Even if
the title differs?

1) e.g:

Jon Maxwell (3):
   [PATCH net-next 1/3] tcp: convert icsk_user_timeout from jiffies to msecs
   [PATCH net-next 2/3] tcp: Add tcp_retransmit_stamp() helper
   [PATCH net-next 3/3] tcp: Add  tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() to
improve accuracy

2) or:

Jon Maxwell (3):
   [PATCH net-next] tcp: convert icsk_user_timeout from jiffies to msecs
   [PATCH net-next] tcp: Add tcp_retransmit_time() helper
   [PATCH net-next] tcp: Add  tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() to
improve TCP_USER_TIMEOUT accuracy

Which is preferred (1) or (2)? Are the above titles descriptive enough?

Regards

Jon
