 Hi,

thanks for the patch, but when you send patches, please make sure:

1) To send "unified" patches, i.e. "diff -u", or even better, use "git
format-patch" to create it and "git send-email" to send it to the list.

2) Patches should be inline, not in an attachment

3) Patch description should be ready for the changelog, i.e. don't write
something like "Please find submitted..." in the patch description. You
can write additional text below the "---" separator if necessary.
Patches will be applied with "git am", and text below the "---"
separator will then be discarded.

4) Make sure that you put the right maintainers on CC:, or otherwise
your patch might be lost in the high traffic of the qemu-devel mailing
list. Use the MAINTAINERS or the scripts/get_maintainers.pl script to
find out the right maintainers.

Please also see https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch for some
more details.
