Hey Umar,
I dug around Github and I think I found the patch you intended to submit
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/pull/6632/commits/711f76376ae7e11f48a1c22a4a04828a24d6a87a
Unfortunately, your email only contains the inverse of your PR's
whitespace change removing a line in freezer.c, not the rest of the
patch. Did you perhaps revert that whitespace change in a new commit and
accidentally only submit that commit instead of the whole change?
Thanks,
David Reaver
