I know you're just learning, so here's some more tips:
Updated patches are generally sent as a "vN" where N is the revision of
the series. `git format-patch` can do this nicely with the `-v` arg.
This would make the subject line look like "[PATCH vN] Allow specifying
the boot device by its label i

Hi,
Recently me and a few others were helping someone in #gentoo on

Add detection for initramfs of the form *.img.old. For example, Gentoo's
sys-kernel/genkernel installs it as initramfs-*.img and moves any
existing one to initramfs-*.img.old.
Apply the same scheme to initrd-*.img and initrd-*.gz files for
consistency.
