Please note, you are responding to someone who lots and lots of kernel
maintainers/developers have blacklisted, myself included. It's just not
worth your effort, I recommend doing the same, as I'm not applying any
patches from this author, unless some other maintainer wants to take the
time to validate and send them on to me.

kill-files are a good thing, please use them :)

good luck!
