This undoes the prematurely committed sky2 transmit logic changes
and applies Mike's later changes.
Here is a corrected patch stream please apply this to 2.6.31-rc5

I have to pass on this set, too many problems:

1) You didn't provide explicit "From: " lines for patches where
   you were not the author Stephen.  I could guess from the
   Signoff lines but I'd rather not.

What is the mechanics for this, does patchwork accept From:
lines in message body?

Yes, this is exactly how it works, git format-patch will even
generate these for you :-)
