Still some basic checkpatchy stuff:

/tmp/tmpm2fsg47h/0012-RDMA-mana_ib-Add-a-driver-for-Microsoft-Azure-Network-Adapter.patch:412: WARNING: quoted string split across lines

And it thinks you should write more for the kconfig symbol, eg why
would someone want to turn it on (hint, to use dpkd on some Azure
instances)

/tmp/tmpm2fsg47h/0012-RDMA-mana_ib-Add-a-driver-for-Microsoft-Azure-Network-Adapter.patch:100: WARNING: please write a help paragraph that fully describes the config symbol

I'll put it in linux-next and you can fix the rest of the stuff bots
will usually find.
