Your patch appears to be whitespace-damaged. Please configure your
mailer appropriately.
Also, please stick to the patch format described here:
http://linux.yyz.us/patch-format.html
In particular, don't put anything in the message that doesn't belong
in the kernel's changelog, such as email-ish messages.

I agree w/ Adrian. Since you are touching it, please put something
appropriate in the Kconfig file. Zhu Yi may be able to help if you
aren't sure what the help text should say.
Thanks!
