You missed v2 in the subject. format-patch -v2 or send-email -v2 will add it. Patch subjects should be short, 50 chars is the goal though sometimes that's not practical. This is a good set of guidelines: https://chris.beams.io/posts/git-commit/ Thanks for your reminder :)

My commit messages aren't great either, but I pushed your patch with this commit message: vmx: Define VMX_CONFIG_FORMAT_ARGV Define VMX_CONFIG_FORMAT_ARGV to replace the hardcoded 'vmware-vmx' string used by the domxml-X-native APIs. This follows the pattern used by other drivers.
