Harini, Omar, please advise if we need to preserve history. If not,
I think it's better to just squash all commits and send the netuio code
as one patch. In this way, I can easily make sure that this one patch
has the right signoff, description, subject formatting etc.
Dmitry, would pushing the netuio code as one patch be ok?
