One trivial note: I'd prefer patches inline with the message, instead of
attached.  If you need to attach it, please add From:, Subject: and a
patch comment in the standard format.  Something like git-format-patch
will do all that stuff for you.

E.g. see below (also with a minor whitespace problem fixed--fun
scripts/checkpatch.pl before submitting and it'll catch that.)

--b.
