Re: [PATCH 00/12] mtd: nand_bbt: introduce independent nand BBT

Hi Peter,

This comment is not related to the code itself, but next time you send a
patch series, could you send all patches as a reply to the cover letter?
This is automatically done when you use git send-email unless you pass
the --no-thread option.
The following command should do the trick:

git send-email <path-to-your-patchset-dir>/*.patch

Best Regards,

Boris
