Much better, thanks.

Trivia: (and it's probably not necessary to resend)

The cover letter should describe the subsystem being
changed or ideally something like "treewide" if the
series touches files throughout the kernel sources.

So this cover letter ideally would have a subject like:

Subject: [PATCH v5 0/5] staging: Remove unnecessary casts of void pointer

> v5:
>   -Fixed compliation warning in lustre/lustre/llite/range_lock.c
>    which remain unfixed in v3.

Some of these are acting on multiple instances.

Please try to use plural and singular descriptions
where appropriate.
