you misunderstand the work of maintainers. Our work is not to fix you
crappy patches. If we start allowing crappy patches, we'd be fixing your
nonsense forever and linux wouldn't move.

that's your call. Now how about you stop being such a baby and go fix
your mistakes to start with ? Just because I'm the maintainer of the
gadget framework, doesn't mean I'm the maintainer of s3c-hsotc.c file.
Maintainer != author too, btw.

Anyway, I got much better stuff to do than babysitting grown ups.
