Only after the patch is discussed should the patch then be submitted to Linus. -For small patches you may want to CC the Trivial Patch Monkey -trivial@rustcorp.com.au set up by Rusty Russell; which collects "trivial" -patches. Trivial patches must qualify for one of the following rules: - Spelling fixes in documentation - Spelling fixes which could break grep(1). - Warning fixes (cluttering with useless warnings is bad) - Compilation fixes (only if they are actually correct) - Runtime fixes (only if they actually fix things) - Removing use of deprecated functions/macros (eg. check_region). - Contact detail and documentation fixes - Non-portable code replaced by portable code (even in arch-specific, - since people copy, as long as it's trivial) - Any fix by the author/maintainer of the file.
