[...] I would prefer if you could provide one patch corresponding to each of the upstream commits, for 2.6.32. This makes it easier to compare versions and to resolve any future conflicts with stable updates. There is no point in doing this for 2.6.34 as we will shortly be moving to 2.6.35 release candidates in experimental.
