applied patches 1-4 of 5.  patch #5 failed to apply, and also, it's not 
really appropriate for the current release candidate bugfix window.

Also:

1) Please include notes to me and reviewers following the "---" marker. 
  Everything before the "---" is copied /verbatim/ into the kernel 
changelog.  Everything after "---", except the patch itself, is ignored.

I had to hand-edit each of your patches, to remove the "Hi , ... Frank" 
paragraph and the "[PATCH 1/5] S390: ..." from the body of each email.

2) Your subject line should be more descriptive.  The subject line is 
used to generate a one-line summary.  You can see how your subject lines 
are vague:

	[PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes
	[PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes
	[PATCH] s390: qeth driver fixes

Here, I had to hand-edit each email subject line to be more descriptive.

3) In general, review Documentation/SubmittingPatches and 
http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html

	Jeff
