Use ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl foo.patch and resend with the
respective folks addressed to as needed (To or Cc as indicated
by the script).

Your commit log should reference why *time_to_tm()* is now
deprecated in favor for time64_to_tm() to make maintainer's
lives easier so that their lookup is faster.

Resend with these details. Likewise for the other patches for
which you failed to do any of this for.
