NAK. Go learn C and don't come back until you've done that. If somebody has told you that you can contribute without knowing the language, they'd lied - you really can't. And I would *STRONGLY* recommend to stay away from drivers/staging while you are learning C - it's like trying to use a public restroom wall as a sex-ed textbook. While we are at it, it might be a good idea to check if the kernel builds after your changes and see what errors are produced.
