Hi Zhang,

Sorry for the delay in looking at it.  One thing which is missing from
your patch is a signed-off-by header.  From section 12 of the
Documentation/SubmittingPatches file in the Linux source tree:

If you could send me an acknowledgement that it would be OK to add a

Signed-off-by: Zhang Huan <zhhuan@gmail.com>

line to your patch, it would be much appreciated.
