Looks like you still have trouble with line wraps. You might want to get this fixed; 
having to figure out why the patch does not apply is a bit annoying.

Moving include statements around is just a whitespace change and should be avoided.
Also, you added a blank line at the end of the file which causes a git whitespace error
when applying the patch.

No need to retransmit. I fixed both and applied the patch with a couple of additional
formatting changes to make the file checkpatch clean.

Thanks,
