I don't know the why of this policy...

> I don't know the why of this policy...

a) Everybody's tools are set up for processing patches over email.  When
the patch is in bugzilla there are many manual steps involved.

b) patches in bugzilla will not get the level of review which emailed patches receive.

c) patches in bugzilla probably can't be discovered via google searches.

That sounds bad.  Please send the bounce message to akpm@kernel.org.
Comment 4 Daniele Napolitano 2009-09-15 15:22:48 UTC 
This bug is fixed, patch is in staging tree. However Otus driver will be deprecated in favor of ar9170 (when fully working).
