sounds good to me, please make sure to always split your series like
this. You can't expect me (or any maintainer for that matter) to pick
patches to proper branches based on your commit logs alone.

remeber that every single maintainer needs to handle hundreds of emails
a week (if not a day) and if patches are properly split and cleanly
mention if it's a bugfix or not, things will go wrong.
