I have no log for this kind of problem.
But I know that patchwork ignores emails with special characters.
And in your commit log, there are some in "mechanism and it?��s upper libs".
Moreover, this commit log should be wrapped.
A quick look shows also that some spaces/tabs are missing.
It was a v2 and there is no change log.
Please submit a v3 after cleaning.

I didn't review this patch and nobody gave its Acked-by.
So at the moment, it's pending. I'll try to review v3 carefully.
Other comments are welcome. I feel this patch can break some important things.
Which tests have you done? (it could be described in commit log)

Last point: I don't like the current implementation of secondary process
and Ericsson wanted to discuss their own implementation:
