You need to properly credit _who_ did the code in the first place. And
your patches did not do that at all, which is very bad, and rude, and
something that we care deeply about.

Please read the file, Documentation/SubmittingPatches for how to
properly attribute the author of the patch when you send it out.

I'm not going to take this as-is because of this problem, and neither
will any other maintainer. Someone can resend it with the proper author
and signed-off-by stuff and I'll be glad to look at it again then.


Sorry for not giving credit. I will resend following patch set with
proper credits.


It is not a race to see who can spam lkml first. Please consider coordinating with Charles, and perhaps even defer to him if he wishes to send the patches (or even have them pulled from his git repository).
