Why is this not broken up into one-patch-per-ioctl like I asked?

Hi Greg,

There is an article, which asks not to submit too many patches at once:
Submitting patches: the essential guide to getting your code into the kernel — The Linux Kernel documentation <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html><https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>

NO!!!! No more huge patch bombs to<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:linux-kernel%40vger.kernel.org>people!
<https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>
   <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>

   <https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html>https://lore.kernel.org/r/20050711.125305.08322243.davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
   <https://lore.kernel.org/r/20050711.125305.08322243.davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>>

This is confusing as you are requesting more patches. What options do I have? - should I remove linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx until you are happy with the review? - can I submit a small number of patches for a non fully functional driver and submit the next portion after they are reviewed and accepted?

Thanks
Iouri
