I am not sure about 'stand-alone'. this patch has to have dependency on
previous patch..

I am not sure how to make a series of patches that are related with others.

In this series of patches, 1/3 was failed to merge because changelog entry was
missing. So other patches(2/3, 3/3) was breaking working codes.
I will resend this patch with previous and check more before sending
these patches.
Sorry for the noise..

And I have a question not related this thread,
I had been waiting my patches merged and also have other patches on
same file(in case of dgnc).
I couldn't send next patches until previous patches are taken.
How can I manage my patches for this case?

thanks.

regards,
Daeseok.
