Automated scripts?  Something else?   I'd be interested to know.

I have to admit being confused by this as well.  I paged through the
git whatchanged info, and guessed that I should have used a prefix
like "ASoC: mpc5200_dma" (camelcase sic) but I think that to expect
that level of awareness from general contributors is probably expecting
a bit much.  I like to think I'm not totally clueless, but I would have
never thought of the above in advance...

In any case, if I have further fixups I happen across, I will try to feed
your bots the correct prefix.

Paul.
