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>
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>

<https://lore.kernel.org/r/20050711.125305.08322243.davem@davemloft.net>>

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
