In the future can you use a different descriptive title for each patch?

Also (although I haven't reviewed the actual code yet) this mostly
makes sense, but I'm not sure we want to disallow connecting to the
same target twice.  Userspace may want to implement a policy of one
conncetion per target, but having multiple connections to the same
target for multipathing/failover seems like something the kernel
should allow.  What was your reason for forbidding this?
