Hi Tanjuate,

Thanks for your interest in the kernel community!

The threading on the multiple versions of this patch series
is unconventional. Please take a look at the archives of 
any mailing list, or the Outreachy mailing list archive.
I don't expect a new version of the patch set to be sent
as a reply to a prior version.

Perhaps scale this back to a single patch to see if this
kind of fix is going to be well received, and to work on
your patch creation skills. 

Greg has pointed you to docs, and of course the First
Patch Tutorial covers all of this too. 

Thanks,
Alison
