Bruce, thanks a lot for your help! Greatly appreciated!

I've verified this at work and noticed that things are not exactly
working as expected (although I was able to create a decent patch).
The max7311.patch I have sent to you also creates a few new files.
Apparently after a quilt refresh of my patch these new files do not
appear in the patch any more (but files that are modified are
updated). Guess this is because the new files are unknown to git.

It might be that it is better to add new files in a separate patch (or
maybe even with something like file://xx.c)
Not sure though as I am not an expert in this area.

Frans.
