    Hi Greg,

    There is an article, which asks not to submit too many patches at once:
    Submitting patches: the essential guide to getting your code into the
    kernel — The Linux Kernel documentation
    <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html><https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>

    NO!!!! No more huge patch bombs
    to<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org
    <mailto:linux-kernel%40vger.kernel.org>people!
    <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>

    This is confusing as you are requesting more patches. What options do I
    have?
    - should I remove linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org until you are happy with
    the review?
    - can I submit a small number of patches for a non fully functional
    driver and submit the next portion after they are reviewed and accepted?

    Thanks
    Iouri
