Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/5] s390: qeth driver fixes
Sorry for the trouble and also thank you very much
for having done the extra work. I made the patches
using git-format-patch so seems that I have to review
them more carefully or I still haven't understand to use
git-format-patch properly.
In any case I will read the documents you mentioned
once again to keep such points in mind...
