I'm confused right now. As you say, first I've sent a patchset of 4:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/11/963

Then, a couple of days later, I've sent the initial patchset of 9:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/18/922

And a day I've sent a fixed version of the above patchset, labeled with v2:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/19/653

Isn't this the right way to do? I still don't get my mistake. Because
what I was just about to do is to resend the v2 patchset, but now I'm
not sure anymore if this is what I'm supposed to do.

BTW: Out of these 3 patchsets, 1st and 3rd should be applied.
