The patch was supposed to be applied with "git am --scissors".
To be honest, I am not sure if the scissors feature of git is to be used for
kernel development, or if I should have announced it.
If is not applicable I will be happy to resend the patch in another format.

The documentation for git-mailinfo(1) sounded it would fit my usecase perfectly:

   ...
   This is useful if you want to begin your message in a discussion thread with comments and suggestions on the message you are responding to, and to conclude it with a
   patch submission, separating the discussion and the beginning of the proposed commit log message with a scissors line.
   ...

I tried to both apply and compile the patch, both succeeded.
