Split this patch to smaller patches to allow review. You can see as an example - latest submission of "Add Paravirtual RDMA Driver" [1]. 2. Fix licenses, magic numbers, remove creepy comments and learn about MAINTAINERS file. 3. Use preferred for this susbsystem title format. 4. Find the relevant mailing list and maintainer for this submission and don't add unrelated people. Thanks.
