Odd, how did you send these patches? They are not properly "threaded"
or "connected" such that if you look them up on lore.kernel.org, or in
your email client, they show that they should be connected.

Here's what they look like in my inbox right now:


1 T Jul 24 Tree Davies (0.6K) [PATCH 0/5] Staging: rtl8192e: Function name cleanup series 1
2 N T Jul 24 Tree Davies (1.9K) [PATCH 3/5] Staging: rtl8192e: Rename function TxTsDeleteBA
3 F Jul 25 To linux-kernel ( 29) [PATCH v2] Documentation: embargoed-hardware-issues.rst: add AMD to the list
4 N T Jul 24 Tree Davies (2.5K) [PATCH 5/5] Staging: rtl8192e: Rename function ResetBaEntry
5 N T Jul 24 Tree Davies (1.8K) [PATCH 4/5] Staging: rtl8192e: Rename function RxTsDeleteBA
6 N T Jul 24 Tree Davies (3.1K) [PATCH 2/5] Staging: rtl8192e: Rename function DeActivateBAEntry
7 N T Jul 24 Tree Davies (1.7K) [PATCH 1/5] Staging: rtl8192e: Rename function ActivateBAEntry

While if I look at a different recent series sent for staging patches, send
correctly, they look like:

372 T Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (0.9K) [PATCH 0/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Fix checkpatch issues
373 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (0.8K) ├─>[PATCH 9/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Fix comparison to false
374 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (7.2K) ├─>[PATCH 8/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Add preferred spaces
375 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (2.2K) ├─>[PATCH 7/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Fix alignment on open parenthesis

378 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (4.1K) ├─>[PATCH 4/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Remove multiple blank lines
379 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (1.0K) ├─>[PATCH 3/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Fix block comment alignment
380 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (0.9K) ├─>[PATCH 2/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Fix code indent
381 C Jul 22 Franziska Naepe (0.9K) └─>[PATCH 1/9] staging: rtl8723bs: ioctl_linux: Fix else on next line


See the difference with the -> and such? No other messages in the middle of
the thread, and they are all connected together so that our tools can handle
them as a series, not as individual patches.

If you use 'git send-email' to send the whole back of patches at once, they
will be properly connected together, so I do recommend using that if you are
starting out.

Please fix up and try again, thanks.

Greg,
I got git send-email working. Do I send this series as a v2, even though the
patches are the same, and how I send them is 'the change'?
The last commit I see in linux-next for rtl8192e is 4a22870cede374d80c5d2f9c5b79253a5a667832.
Can I send patches from that state?

Yes.

Sure, or just work off of my staging.git tree with the staging-next
branch.
