My second patch somehow got lost in the mailing system (I suspect due to its size of >300kB). I will wait for some more comments and then do a reroll thereby splitting the second patch in smaller parts ...

For such big patches it also helps if you push them somewhere public, and post the URL and branch name, so that interested parties can still have a look.

But yes, vger.kernel.org silently discards all mail above 100KB, see
