Could you generate patches for packages with git format-patch -N to
avoid the numbering PATCH X/Y ? This is normally caught by "make
check-package".

Also, this particular patch is apparently a huge aggregation of several
individual upstream commits. We do want to have each individual commit
as a separate patch in Buildroot, with a reference to the upstream
commit, a bit like this:

Signed-off-by: Antoine Ténart ...
Upstream: link to upstream commit, or at least commit hash
Signed-off-by: You

Thanks!

Thomas
