Yes, huge. Twice the size of the other patches combined. Twenty
times if you omit the asfs patch from the others. Talking about the
asfs patch, any progress getting it accepted upstream? Any reason why
it should not be promoted to kernel-source in the meantime?

In any case I did not expect to see a full gigabit ethernet driver
appear in an arch specific patch.

Then it definitely belongs in kernel-source until it is accepted upstream.

As you wish. I don't really care. Either way, it's hard to upload
something by mistake if it takes more than an hour to build.

I will definitely continue using emacs for editing changelogs.

No we shouldn't. It's not worth it. Just add whatever changelog
entries you like, but do mark them with your name (which you didn't).

No, but I submitted a patch to the BTS that made it into 3.1-pre2-2.

That message is spurious, I also submitted a patch for that, but it's
pending upload.
