Gave a relook at this: This gives checkpatch.pl error: 0012-tpm-remove-tpm_dev_wq_lock.patch ------------------------------------- ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1> ("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit 9e1b74a63f77 ("tpm: add support for nonblocking operation")' #8: 9e1b74a63f776 ("tpm: add support for nonblocking operation") total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 7 lines checked NOTE: For some of the reported defects, checkpatch may be able to mechanically convert to the typical style using --fix or --fix-inplace. Please send me a new patch with a legit fixes line. It is a fix to regression even if it is a cosmetic one. I'll drop the current patch from my tree and apply a new one once I get it from you. Thanks. /Jarkko
