In that case please don’t include “[PATCH]” in the subject line.  There
are many patches that need to be reviewed and it’s a drain on our
limited resources to review patches that don’t yet result in buildable
code.

I consider “[PATCH]” emails as delayed commits.  We all have work in
progress and it doesn’t make sense to share it early as it just
displaces patches that are ready for review.
