I have no idea what all of this means :(

Can you resend the full series, not just random patches in a series?  I
don't have any of the old ones anymore.

If I have applied other patches, just send this as a sequence that is
numbered properly, with all of the patches to be applied.

You need to make it very easy for a maintainer to know what to do here,
remember, we have no short-term memory of any previous submissions.

thanks,
