Hi David,
This "patch 0000" is not a commit message, as it never shows up in git log.
Each of the follow-up patches does have details about the changes it makes.
But maybe you are really asking for more background information, which I
should have added in this cover letter. Here's a start:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20181110085041.10071-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com
...and it looks like this small patch series is not going to work out--I'm
going to have to fall back to another RFC spin. So I'll be sure to include
you and everyone on that. Hope that helps.
thanks,
