I know many people that this will be useful for. Especially those that have
to send with their work email, and have to fight Exchange servers. And
gmail isn't very good at sending patches either.

Let me see if I understand the proposed work flow, and perhaps add some
myself.

1) Someone clones Linus's tree or some subsystem tree into their github
   account.

2) Does some work.

3) Pushes it to their account on github.

4) Runs git pull-request that will go to pulls@lists.kernel.dev

5) Then this bot can pull the request into a kernel.org tree.

6) Runs checkpatch on each commit.

   On errors, sends a report to the submitter, and stops here.

7) Could have the zero-day-bot run against it.

   On errors, send it back to the submitter.

8) If it passes all the above, it then gets broken into a patch series and
   then sent out to the mailing lists and Cc's maintainers based on the
   get_maintainers list. Probably should be filtered a bit.

Is this what is being proposed?
