The subject should be:
[PATCH] staging: comedi: shorten a long line
or something. You need the subsystem prefix. Try not to be vague.

You need a blank line before the Signed-off-by line.
Best not to mention eudyptula. The patch should be a readability
improvement which justifies itsefl.

This isn't really a readability improvement. Checkpatch.pl is not the
king of the world. It's only useful so far as it improves readability.
