That would be great - go for it! Nick Desaulniers has a good blog post which describes how to submit a patch [1]. I read it and then ran this sequence of commands to generate and submit my first patch:

git commit
git format-patch HEAD~1
./scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-ALSA-hda-realtek-Add-quirk-for-Samsung-Notebook.patch
git send-email 0001-ALSA-hda-realtek-Add-quirk-for-Samsung-Notebook.patch
./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-ALSA-hda-realtek-Add-quirk-for-Samsung-Notebook.patch
git send-email \
--cc-cmd='./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-ALSA-hda-realtek-Add-quirk-for-Samsung-Notebook.patch' \
0001-ALSA-hda-realtek-Add-quirk-for-Samsung-Notebook.patch
