The patch that was attached to that email wasn't complete and couldn't 
be applied - it had no header, simply beginning with the letter "I" 
followed by a +.

Aside from that, it makes it much easier to review patches (and thus 
more likely for them to be reviewed in a timely manner) if they are sent 
directly as self-contained emails using "git send-email" rather than 
sending the output of "git diff" as an attachment to an email message. 
Also, post new versions of a patch using the -v2 (-v3, etc) option to 
git send-email so that they will show up with, e.g. "[PATCH v2]" in the 
subject. See the libvirt contributors' guidelines here:

(ignore the short bit about using "diff -urp" or "git diff" - that is 
ancient cruft that should have been removed long ago. Instead, you 
should commit your changes to a local branch, then use git send-email to 
send the patch.)

Finally, the commit log message should be a short paragraph about what 
is implemented; your original patch message included a large treatise on 
the subject, and the "v2" patch contained no header at all. Take a look 
at "git log" to get a feel for what is appropriate.
