Why do you repeatedly send a patch that cannot be applied, and this does not have
a CC on linux-kernel.vger.kernel.org.

Otherwise, code modification looks good to me.

The format is weired, but still I can apply this into my git repo...

I guess linux-kernel.vger.kernel.org is not mandatory, feel free
to Cc this mailing list.

   Why (it does apply to your 'dev' branch)? Because of the merge window?

   I normnally avoid CCing LKML as my patches are not generally interesting
to the wide public (I think)...

   Sorry, 1st time I forgot to do the internal CC dance -- CCing couple SVACE
(static analyzer) specific mailing lists...

   This is just the quilt's format. I normally use quilt for development
and then import my patch seies to git in order to prepare it for posting.
If I post a single patch, I just skip the git step and post with my MTA...
