Excuse for jumping through this, just a submission style notice:

Please, Cc maintainers with big patches that don't fit in into the
mailing list in the future.

I'd suggest you place this also in the cover letter, so at least there
is a record on the mailing list archive that some patches could not
get through but there was an alternative way to take them for others.
As for maintainers, they can collect the large patch as attachment
from the email.

Thanks.
