I was wondering if someone could give me a few hints.  I noticed that
all patches have [PATCH] in the subject.  Should this always be done?
Also, any other general rules to follow that could be passed on would
be nice.

Chris feel free to correct me on this, but...
Since btrfs is Linux kernel code, the same rules apply for btrfs kernel code as
they do for Linux kernel code. Take a look at Documentation/SubmittingPatches
in a checkout of the kernel source. It is online here:

You can format your patch submission emails correctly with git-send-email(1).
