Could you please tell me what's sparse warnings you hit?
Just now I ran ./scripts/checkpatch.pl again without "--ignore 
FILE_PATH_CHANGES",
I got the following warning:

WARNING:FILE_PATH_CHANGES: added, moved or deleted file(s), does 
MAINTAINERS need updating?
#128:
new file mode 100644

I'll change it. But I'm not sure if this is the only thing I need to change.
So could you please elaborate? I'll pay attention to it in the future.

Thanks,
Chris
