It's great that you're sending patches to fix these issues but it's not
quite formatted as the maintainers like.

The patch needs to be included inline in the message, rather than as an
attachment.  You can see it as an attachment here:
  http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-April/070122.html
.. as opposed to the required inline format like this patch:
  http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-April/070120.html

Adding a diffstat would also be nice.
