You can update the commit message and subject line to be more specific. *** example Subject: crypto: lib/mpi - Fix return of uninitailized variable err If no error occurs, "err" variable will be returned with uninitialized value, which is actually a success case scenario and return value should have been zero. *** This makes the need of entire fix more clear. I think currently no body is checking return value of this function as this is recent introduction or this would have failed. Kamlesh
