I found it while analyzing several device drivers as a personal hobby.


I also want to ask you one question.
While analyzing several device drivers, I found several such integer overflow 
or race condition problems, and made and submitted a patch.

However, there is no response whether this patch has been accepted or rejected. 
In this case, do I have to send an email to the higher level maintainer? Or do I have to wait?

Thanks,
