Sorry, thought I was following the instructions for large patches in 
Documentation/SubmittingPatches. It is currently one patch of about 
22000 lines, around 630k.

Most of the patch is new files, I'm figuring one file per email.
There are 2 files just under 3000 lines, 4 in the 1000-1700 line range, 
and some smaller ones. Do I need to break any of those up further?
