Then don't send the patch out. Work on some other piece of part of
the kernel, or better yet, some other userspace code where testing is
easier. It's really quite simple.

You don't have the technical skills, or at this point, the reputation,
to send patches without tesitng them first. The fact that sometimes
people like Linus will send out a patch labelled with "COMPLETELY
UNTESTED", is because he's skilled and trusted enough that he can get
away with it. You have neither of those advantages.

Best regards,
