Is there a way for these patches to be posted on LKML? It is rather difficult
to copy-n-paste patches in emails and sending them. Or if you want to, you can
email them directly to me. To do that use 'git send-email' and 'git format-patch'
to prep the git commits into patches.


Also, the title says 'RFC 0/2' but I am not seing 1 or 2?
