Hi Guru,
Other than the cover letter, each individual patch should also include the patch
version history in the descending order. If a specific patch(es) that is/are
part of a patch-set, did not have any change, we should still increment its
version and record "none" as the change in current version for such patches.

However, from the patch-set, any patches that are acked, do not need to be
resent along with other patches that are still under revision. But do mentioned
about such accepted/acked patches in the cover letter.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
deepak.
