I don't think setting up a new mailing list purely for patches will
benefit much. It all comes down to who's gonna merge the contributions,
and Github/bugzilla are definitely easier in that regard. I suggest
opening a bug like normally, and then sending the .patch to the
maintainers directly via e-mail with bug #nr linked either in Subject or
git message body.
