Don't expect much cheer and rejoicing over this. I suspect that akpm
or Linus will either want the 17 patches merged into one or have a
patchset where every single patch leaves the kernel in a working
state, including working eHCA driver.

I don't like the idea to put the whole driver in one patch file. I would propose to put the patch "ehca: integration in Linux kernel" last instead
of first, as Arnd mentioned. With that change we leave the kernel in a
working state when applying the patches.

Heiko
