Hi Jeff and others,
We have now split the submission into 8 patches.
Attached is the first patch. It contains mostly
cosmetic changes such as style of comments,
indentation, structure name changes as per linux convention
etc.
Please let us know if you want us to send the subsequent
patches one-after-another right now, or do you want us
to send them only after you have completed review and accepted
this first patch.
Thanks,
Ravi

When we say "separate logical changes", we mean it :)
This means that your level1 patch should be split into at least 4 patches.
Second, send each patch in a separate email, as described in
http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html (and
Documentation/SubmittingPatches) rather than sending as a tarball.
