Questions on the procedure/policy for patch submission

[Marc St-Jean <Marc_St-Jean@pmc-sierra.com>]

1a. Do patches living completely in arch/mips and include/asm-mips only have to 
be submitted to the l-m.o?

1b. If so, does this imply that l-m.o will push them to kernel.org?


2a. Do patches which are outside the above directories have the be submitted to 
the kernel.org list?

2b. If so, how are dependencies between the two sets of submission handled 
during the review process?

Thanks,
Marc
