Thanks Will.

And this will be a very good thing; I am going to be away for a little
over two weeks, and I'm not intending to read much email, neither am I
intending to catch up on the huge amount of email that will be unread
after the period.  This means that any patches buried in that email will
simply be ignored by me.

Patches in the patch system will get processed once I'm back though.

But, that doesn't mean "throw your patches into the patch system" - they
still need to be reviewed by someone (and any which appear in there
without an acked-by or reviewed-by or tested-by will be discarded unless
they're trivial.)
