is there a reason you guys dont use git to submit your patches ?  it does take 
time to learn if you arent familiar, but the time spent more than pays off in 
the long wrong ... it takes care of all these fun bits for you.  a shortened 
list for arbitrary developers:
1. < make changes to git repo >
2. git add < files you want to commit >
3. git commit -s
 - first line is the subject (so you have to follow convention yourself)
 - one blank line
 - paragraph for body of changelog
so the example commit log would be (just the stuff between the dashes):
----------------------------
SH/Maple/Dreamcast: improve detection of attached peripherals

Blah blah blah this is the long subject explaining why this is wanted.

----------------------------
4. git-format-patch HEAD^
5. git-send-email --to linux-sh@vger.kernel.org <list of patches produced>
6. git reset --hard HEAD^

i'm lazy and dont create branches for the small one-off changes.  so you guys 
doing more work would probably want to create a branch before doing the work.  
in that case, just replace "HEAD^" with like "master" to generate patches of 
all the commits made to your branch.
