applied patches 1-4 of 5. patch #5 failed to apply, and also, it's not
really appropriate for the current release candidate bugfix window.
Also:
1) Please include notes to me and reviewers following the "---" marker.
Everything before the "---" is copied /verbatim/ into the kernel
changelog. Everything after "---", except the patch itself, is ignored.
I had to hand-edit each of your patches, to remove the "Hi , ... Frank"
paragraph and the "[PATCH 1/5] S390: ..." from the body of each email.
2) Your subject line should be more descriptive. The subject line is
used to generate a one-line summary. You can see how your subject lines
are vague:
[PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes
[PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes
[PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes
Here, I had to hand-edit each email subject line to be more descriptive.
3) In general, review Documentation/SubmittingPatches and
http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html
