This is just a note for the future - you don't have to go change things now: reading those commit messages back-to-back, there's a lot of boilerplate code which repeats with each commit message and there's a lot of text talking what the patch does. Please tone this down in the future - it is really annoying and doesn't bring a whole lot by repeating things or explaining the obvious. Just concentrate on explaining why the patch exists and mention any non-obvious things. Everything else people can find by searching the net. Thx. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. https://people.kernel.org/tglx/notes-about-netiquette
