Ah, sorry, you received it already.

I noticed that the patches via git-send-email weren't sent out
properly to some places (like LKML) because of my bad setup of email
(totally forgotten after the fresh installation), so I resent them
again yesterday.

I should have mentioned it in the cover page. Sorry for confusion.
