You should submit the patch following the general Linux patch submission
rules. If you are not familiar with that I recommend doing thorough
research before your first. And for the actual submission I strongly
recommend to use 'git send-email'. Also remember to make sure that all
legal requirements are fulfilled, especially Signed-off-by tags.

Oh, and you have to use your real legal name. I can't take patches from
pseudonyms.

Here are few pointers:
