Quoting documentation: Clean-up patches ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Netdev discourages patches which perform simple clean-ups, which are not in the context of other work. For example: * Addressing ``checkpatch.pl`` warnings * Addressing :ref:`Local variable ordering` issues * Conversions to device-managed APIs (``devm_`` helpers) This is because it is felt that the churn that such changes produce comes at a greater cost than the value of such clean-ups. Conversely, spelling and grammar fixes are not discouraged. See: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#clean-up-patches -- pw-bot: cr
