Sir,

As the mentor in the linux kernel community bridge program, I usually
inform the mentees when the review on the mentee mailing list has
successfully concluded to a first acceptable state and I think it is well
advised to reach out to the maintainers for further discussion.

You did not do that, but just send some patch to the maintainers.
That is fully up to you, but I will not support the patch acceptance in
any way, and it suggests that you do not see the need to be mentored.

If you can land patches without mentoring support successfully, that is
great, but then you do not need a mentorship.

I am extremely sorry for my mistakes. It won't happen again.

Now, to the commit:

Ayush, your commit message is largely incomprehensible.

Your follow-up explanation that was needed should have been in the commit
message in the first place.

It was my first patch, so I had very little idea of forming commit messages. 
I will discuss it with mentors next time before sending the patch next time.

Let us start with the simpler patch and then see if you can write a commit 
message that convinces Joe to ack your patch.

Ayush, you did not sign-off with your full legal name.

My legal name according to all official identification documents of India is Ayush. 
I have no surname registered legally.
So should I include "Ayush [off-list ref]"  or do I need to include my last name too (Which is Ayush only)?

Okay. If you say so, I cannot judge but you should try to use a name that 
others can with a fair chance uniquely identify that is you.

The name is used in git log summaries, pull requests, etc.; so, it should 
be a name that with high chance to refer to one person.

Maybe you find a good way that works as suitable name for 
unique identification?
