One thread per version is good; please do not post new versions to old
threads. A tool like "git send-email" can be your friend here. See
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst for lots of details on how
to submit patches.

Along these lines, I appreciate that you broke up the series as I
requested, but you overdid it a bit. Think in terms of logical changes
and making things easy to review, and you should be able to coalesce
things a bit.

Think hard; if you're unable to work with the kernel project's
conventions, there's not a lot of point in resubmitting the patches.

Thanks,
