Two minor nitpicks.

Don't put the filename in the source file - this is now generally frowned 
upon. Instead, replace that with a title/ short description for the driver.

e.g. Move this line up instead to the top, rather than burying it under the 
copyright notice:

Driver for the VoIP USB phones with CM109 chipsets.

ChangeLog's/ history should go in the commit message, not the code. It's the 
job of the revision control system to maintain the history of the code, not 
the codes job.
