The previous patch isn't in the git repo yet so it doesn't have a commit id thus this one is wrong. You should've just made a v2 and made that change. I recommend you to look over this: http://kernelnewbies.org/FirstKernelPatch Just remove the HEAD commit in your local git repo, add that space and then when using `git format-patch` use the "--subject-prefix" option to add that it's a second version. Then after "---" you can say what was changed in the second version. For example (I'm sure you can think of a better one!): Signed-off-by: ... --- v2: added a space after a statement in a line where a coding style error was fixed. drivers/... > > Signed-off-by: Amitoj Kaur Chawla > --- > drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_chip.c | 11 ++++------- > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_chip.c b/drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_chip.c > index 33fa456..bdf6a73 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_chip.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_chip.c > @@ -17,20 +17,17 @@ logical_chip_type_t getChipType(void) > char physicalRev; > logical_chip_type_t chip; > > - physicalID = devId750;/* either 0x718 or 0x750 */ > + physicalID = devId750; /* either 0x718 or 0x750 */ > physicalRev = revId750; > > if (physicalID = 0x718) { > chip = SM718; > - } > - else if (physicalID = 0x750) { > + } else if (physicalID = 0x750) { > chip = SM750; > /* SM750 and SM750LE are different in their revision ID only. */ > - if (physicalRev = SM750LE_REVISION_ID) { > + if (physicalRev = SM750LE_REVISION_ID) > chip = SM750LE; > - } > - } > - else { > + } else { > chip = SM_UNKNOWN; > } > > -- Thanks, Giedrius
