That's alright.. I'm still a newbie over here...
read Documentation/SubmittingPatches
there the instructions on how to create a perfect patch is there.
then when done make sure you use scripts/checkpatch to check you patch
then when all good use scripts/getmaintainer.pl to find the appropriate
people to send it too.
and voila you'll be sending patches to the kernel like there's no
tomorrow...
