Without this comment checkpatch.pl raises a warning about uncommented
lock definition.
I agree with you, above comment is redundant, but is it okay to ignore
such warnings before sending the patch?

I'm talking about below checkpatch condition:
=====
# check for spinlock_t definitions without a comment.
		if ($line =~ /^.\s*(struct\s+mutex|spinlock_t)\s+\S+;/ ||
		    $line =~ /^.\s*(DEFINE_MUTEX)\s*\(/) {
			my $which = $1;
			if (!ctx_has_comment($first_line, $linenr)) {
				CHK("UNCOMMENTED_DEFINITION",
				    "$1 definition without comment\n" . $herecurr);
			}
		}

Actually, I have run some experiments with NEW_DATA status bits. And
looks like we can't determince actual status of NEW_DATA virtual
interrupt when physical IRQ is raised. I will back to this problem when
begin Motion Events feature implementation.

Sorry, I've made a mistake. Comment about INDIO_DIRECT_MODE was left
by Andy here:
