Why? This patch here is broken and it should be fixed. Don't apply
broken patches...

Dmitry is ressurecting a series that is several years old and not his to
begin with.

He was unsure about take the code of somebody else.
To be fair, he even asked for advice on IRC about to proceed.

Dmitry, as you may have guessed, for next revision, please fix Jian Hu
original patches in place, not with fixup patches.

If your fixes are minor (not complete rewrite), please keep the original
author and add your SoB

We never take intentionally wrong patches, e.g. code which does not even
compile, and immediately fix it in next patch.

Can you imagine adding such drivers? Which are broken in the commit they
are added?

So the patchset is old or abandoned, take ownership, add co-developed
etc. Just don't add known broken code.

Okay, I've got your point. It's reasonable.
I will fix Jian Hu's patches (squash with mine) and mark all of them
with co-developed and SoB Jian Hu tags. Thank you for explanation.

It was clearly explained in the cover-letter, nobody expected these patches
to be applied as-is.

Using RFC would have been the best solution, but this situation is rather
specific and he made the right decisions to trigger this current discussion
toward an acceptable solution for everybody.
