Please resubmit this with a short summary (Subject, < 80 chars) and
separate commit message (body). Try to explain why this is needed a bit
more verbosely.

Also always include a changelog here (after "---") when you update
patches, and indicate the patch revision in the Subject prefix (e.g.
this should have been "[PATCH v2]".

Since the two patches you sent are related, you should submit them in a
series. Take a look at git-format-patch and git-send-email for one way
of doing that, more details can be found in:

	Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

Let's get you up to speed on the process now, so that we don't have to
deal with that bit for your future contributions.
