Hi Marco

I know there is a lot of learn, doing the submission correct can be
harder than writing the code, at least for the first few patches.

One thing you missed is the patch version number in the Subject:
line. When there are multiple versions of a patch flying around, it
makes it easier to keep track of, if there is a version number.
Please try to remember this for you next patch. No need to resend just
because of this.
