The commit subject should be based on previous submissions, if you do a git log --oneline drivers/staging/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.c you will see that the most frequent subject used was: Staging: bcm2835-audio: So you should utilize the same subject prefix, and make your prefix be something like: Staging: bcm2835-audio: Remove the initialization of static pointers > > Signed-off-by: AbdAllah-MEZITI <abdallah.meziti.pro@xxxxxxxxx> > > v2: -fix the line-wrapping of the changelog. > -fix the ref. documentation: C99 standards release, > and not the draft. > -this patch is the Task 10 Eudyptula Challenge > that only fix one code style problem. > --- > drivers/staging/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.c | 4 ++-- > 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.c b/drivers/staging/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.c > index a84d74d..265fe55 100644 > --- a/drivers/staging/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.c > +++ b/drivers/staging/bcm2835-audio/bcm2835.c > @@ -28,8 +28,8 @@ > * to debug if we run into issues > */ > > -static struct snd_card *g_card = NULL; > -static struct bcm2835_chip *g_chip = NULL; > +static struct snd_card *g_card; > +static struct bcm2835_chip *g_chip; > > static int snd_bcm2835_free(struct bcm2835_chip *chip) > { > -- Florian _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
