Applied, thanks.

Please format your subject lines something like:

Subject: [PATCH/RFC/WHATEVER] bnx2x: Description....

This allows the automated GIT tools to compose a suitable commit
header line.  Everthing inside of the initial "[]" brackets will be
removed and the remaining line text will be the commit message header
line.

Adding a second subject line into the message body as well is also
superfluous and confusing, please eliminate it.

Thanks.
