[U-Boot] patchwork does not pick my patch

Hi.
I posted a patch to change a file permission. This: http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2013-November/167573.html
and again: http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2013-November/167608.html
But my patch would not appear on patchwork. (Maybe because there is no diff line.)
What should I do? Is it better to squash it to another patch?
Best Regard Masahiro Yamada

I think so too. There is some handling for renames without patch in patchwork, but I think there is no handling for just file permission changes. That should be fixed in patchwork then.
What should I do?
File bug report at patchwork ML?

Well to show it up in patchwork that could work. Since this change is quite trivial I think it will also work if you just peak the relevant custodian to pick this from the list.

Yep, that's correct - there's no support for these permission changes at present. I'll add that!

Thanks!
BTW, I notice another issue of patchwork.
Patchwork sometimes picks up emails which should not be.
For example, I post an email (not a patch format, but includes some diff lines) to the ML: http://u-boot.10912.n7.nabble.com/RFC-ARM-optimized-memcpy-memset-on-SPL-bui...
And it was shown up on patchwork against my will. http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/260004/
I appreciate if you would fix this also.

Could you pick my trivial patch directly from the ML? http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2013-November/167573.html
