Thanks for the reply Otavio.

So if I want to send multiple patches (each patch is a separate email 
that includes both the kernel patch & a patch for linux-qoriq_3.12.bb), 
then each patch of linux-qoriq_3.12.bb will depend on any of my 
previously submitted patches, right?

In other words, the SRC_URI in the linux-qoriq_3.12.bb patch will show 
my prior kernel patch submissions regardless of whether they have been 
merged / approved.

Example: (assume that "configure-T1040-for-FMAN-3VL.patch" was 
previously submitted but not yet approved / merged) -
