Trivial comments while I work on the rest:
- Run "git log --oneline" on the files you change and make sure the
subject lines match existing style.
- Always capitalize "PCI" and "ACPI".
- Use a capitalized verb as the first word after the "PCI: " prefix
in a changelog subject.
- Don't add a period at the end of a changelog subject.
- Wrap changelogs so "git log" output fits in 80 columns. I use
"set textwidth=75" in vim.
- Always use "()" after function names.
- Don't write "This patch does ..." in a changelog. It's obvious
that the context is this patch, so write something like "Update
users of the header file to use the new name." I like it when
there's a little bit of background followed by a short paragraph
starting with a strong verb that tells me what the patch does.
I usually fix all this sort of stuff silently, but I'm slow and it scales
better if you do it.
Don't bother posting an update until I have a chance to look at the code
itself. I'm sure (at least, I hope) I'll have more substantive comments
than these :)
