As you did here, you are lumping things together only by the existance of the file in the tree, not by the logical type of change happening, which isn't ok. Also, you can send them as subsystem-specific series, so as to not have to cross-post all of the changes all over the place. I doubt the drm developers care about ethernet driver license issues :) thanks, greg k-h
