You shouldn't be adding any new checkpatch errors, but you currently
are .. Just clean up the individual patches w/o the entire gigaset
driver, that should be do-able (it's even a basic submission
requirement). The other issue is that your adding new files which aren't
clean, those can certainly be cleaned up.
