A few points about patch formatting.

The subject of the submittal message should be of the form "[PATCH]
component: Description". For this one, something like "[PATCH] b43:
Add LP PHY analog switch support" would be appropriate. If multiple
versions are needed, indicate that a previous one is superceded by
[PATCH V2] ..., etc.

There should be a line containing --- after the last signed-off-by line.

Anything between the beginning of the e-mail and the --- line becomes
part of the permanent record if the patch is accepted. Usually quoted
material and words like bullshit are avoided. Not always, but usually.

Between the --- line and the start of the patch, you can place
instructions to Linville regarding the circumstances of the patch and
its priority. Such directions are useful to distinguish an improvement
that should wait for the next merge period from a bug fix that should
be sent upstream ASAP. In this case, the patch fixes a system crash on
some platforms and should be applied now.
