Hi,
The reason for these extra changes is the result of running
fashkar@barbarian:~/Downloads/linux_mainline$ clang-format -style=file
-i drivers/uio/uio_pci_generic.c
fashkar@barbarian:~/Downloads/linux_mainline$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl
0001-uio-uio_pci_generic-add-memory-mappings.patch
i shall undo those changes and retry again, ty
