Thanks for your contribution! However, as Mike Zick said, and as
explained in the Buildroot manual, patches should be submitted inline.
The 'git send-email' tool does that for you.

Which human errors? If you use 'git send-email', there is no problem at
all, and sending patches just requires one command.

Submitting patches on a mailing list allows people to easily review
them, discuss comments. Buildroot is by far not the only community to
do this. Other major communities in the embedded Linux space do the
same: the kernel, U-Boot, Barebox and others.

Best regards,

Thomas
