The submitter marked that patch as "RFC", he must make a new formal
submission and indicate that it's in a final form and ready to be
actually applied.
You are intelligent enough to find the patch in patchwork, yet you
totally ignore the state that the patch was put into and didn't
even bother considering what it might mean.
What's the point of having something like patchwork if I still have to
explain things to people by hand? It doesn't save me any time, since
the whole point of patchwork is that I can communicate to the entire
world what state the patch is in and that tells what (if anything) can
happen next for that patch.
