Sorry I should have asked you about this. I like to see what is being
fixed in the subject line.

Can you update the subject line. The current one doesn't say anything
about the nature of the fix.

Also please run the checkpatch script on your patches. This tool useful
and can offer you tips on improving your commit log as well as code.
