You should explain this in the commit logs of the patches.

I understand you're coming from FreeBSD, but there's a different process
for the Linux kernel. The commit subject should follow the format you can
find in the git history, such as "ARM: dts: sunXi: ..." or "mmc: sunxi: ...".

You should send the patches to the respective maintainers and CC the relevant
maintainers. Use "scripts/get_maintainer.pl" for this.
