+The patches-* subdirectories contain the kernel patches applied for every
+OpenWrt target. All patches should be named 'NNN-lowercase_shortname.patch'
+and sorted into the following categories:
+
+0xx - upstream backports
+1xx - code awaiting upstream merge
+2xx - kernel build / config / header patches
+3xx - architecture specific patches
+4xx - mtd related patches (subsystem and drivers)
+5xx - filesystem related patches
+6xx - generic network patches
+7xx - network / phy driver patches
+8xx - other drivers
+9xx - uncategorized other patches
+
+ALL patches must be in a way that they are potentially upstreamable, meaning:
+
+- they must contain a proper subject
+- they must contain a proper commit message explaining what they change
+- they must contain a valid Signed-off-by line
