Even Dave Miller only averages 12-15 patches a month, and he does it for a
living, and they're all in the one part of the kernel he maintains. It's going
to be a really hard time for a newcomer to get up to speed enough to produce a
useful and usable patch every 3 days on the average, especially across multiple
areas of the kernel.

More realistic goal:

1) Get a patch accepted.
2) Get another patch accepted.
3) Re-evaluate how many patches you can actually do.
