Sorry I have disappointed you .I learned now how to generate N/M
patches .I have recently sent my last 6 patches in that way only.   I
am extremely sorry for previous patches as I could not able to send in
series. Please let me allow to send me those patches again in correct
way. If you would say I will definitely send them in series.Can I send
all the patches in series for rtl8712 directory if you do not mind ?
