Thanks for bundling this up in a patch-set.

For reference, it does seem that the threading of this patchset is broken.
Perhaps there was some option you passed to git send-email that caused
this. In any case, please look into this for future submissions.

Also, please use ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl patch_file to generate
the CC list for patches.

Lastly, b4 can help with both of the above.
