It's mainly about how comfortable the new maintainers are with the process, in this case it was clearly a bit too much for Ben to get right at the first time, but others are more experienced with sending pull requests to kernel maintainers already. Since the patches individually are all fine, I could have just applied them, but the PR ended up having too many mistakes. The one thing that is special for a new platform is that the branch can mix things that would otherwise be separate pull requests. Sending this as patches means that I have more flexibility to apply it either into a branch for the new platform or split it up as normal. Arnd
