Re: [PATCH 1/24] ver_linux: echo.patch

Your subject is really "odd", it doesn't really describe what you are
doing in a single line, it just has a file name in it :(

What did you use to generate these? I got a few duplicates, and there
isn't a "leading" 0 for the first 9 patches. git can spit these out
correctly very simply, I recommend using that in the future.

Can you respin these patches with correct subject lines, based on this,
