Yeap. The process is first make patch and send to list for testing. People
comment and some changes happen. This can happen several times. Once the
patch is acceptable then it going into Andrew's tree for wider range
testing. Once Andrew determines that the patch is safe he sends it to
linus. It is a sure way to make sure the patches are of the highest
quality.

There is already code of mine in the kernel so I have been through the
process. Let's get the process moving on these patches so that they
will be in place by the time OLS comes around. This patch is small and
non-controversial. Let's get it started moving forward so that we can
spend time on the complex ones. The complex ones will also need to get
hammered out on LKML since they involve complicated hotplug code.

The next patch will be the sysfs one but it is not ready yet.
After that is the reset one.
Next will be secondary head support in the radeon driver.

These three will require a lot more code review.
