[PATCH] SubmittingPatches: add penalty for forcing a maintainer to edit a patch

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

entries) all the time.  There needs to be some kind of penalty put into
place to keep developers from abusing maintainers.

 If your description starts to get long, that's a sign that you probably
 need to split up your patch.  See #3, next.
