You need to ask for the feedback you are looking for, we don't know what
you feel is wrong here.

As we are drowning in real patches to review, I almost always just
ignore RFC patches as I know that means that the submitter feels there
is still more work to be done.  So please always take that in mind.
Please ask for reviews from other developers in your company if you feel
it is not ready for our review.
