As you know this patch is part of a patch-series. And this is the first
time that this patch has a change. So this summary covers the complete
history for this patch.

Yes, I should have done this. Sorry.

In this version of the patch series, I only made this small change to
this patch 1/7. I wanted to spare the list a resending of the complete
patchset for such a small change.

So what is the recommended way to do this? Is it really
recommended/required to repost the complete patch series upon a small
change in only one patch? No problem, I can do this. patman makes it
very easy. :)

Should I repost the complete series again?

Thanks,
Stefan
