As a driver maintainer, you need to patch sets, and submit them in a timely fashion to me. Note I said patch set, not patch, in following with Rule #3 from Documentation/SubmittingPatches. Also make sure to review http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html

Understood. Both references reviewed. Thanks.

Sorry, but one last question... These two patches generated overnight by Andrew:

Message-Id: <200701270710.l0R7AhLj004217@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: + git-netdev-all-atl1-pm-fix.patch added to -mm tree

and

Message-Id: <200701270708.l0R78Q0o004191@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: + git-netdev-all-atl1-build-fix.patch added to -mm tree

Do I include these in my patch set that I submit to you, or do you apply them to netdev directly?

There is no hard and fast rule. If the patch is obvious and submitted in correct form (Andrew's notifications are not in such a form), then I might go ahead and apply it. But I usually reply to the patch with "applied" if so.

In general, you can answer this question yourself. Look at netdev-2.6.git#atl1 and see what's in there.
