Read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on how to format your patch correctly. Looking at what you've sent so far, you're pretty much there, all you need to do is: 1. Check that your email client is sending patches that are formatted correctly (send one to yourself and make sure it applies.) 2. Make the patch message a bit more descriptive, a listing of the error would be useful, as would some background on what introduced it 3. Sign it off 4. Send it to the correct maintainers of the appropriate parts of the kernel - check MAINTAINERS in the top level directory of the kernel tree - from the content of the patch, I'd guess that this is for the AppArmour maintainers Once you've done all that, there shouldn't be any reason why it won't be applied, and once that happens, it'll make it's way to the mac80211-next tree shortly. You should CC Johannes and linux-wireless just to make sure that everyone's aware of it.
