[+cc Lorenzo, please cc him on all drivers/{host,dwc,endpoint} material]
Please run "git log --oneline drivers/pci/host/pcie-mediatek.c" and
make yours match. Same capitalization, same sentence structure, etc.,
e.g.,
PCI: mediatek: Clear IRQ status ...
s/dispathed/dispatched/
s/irq/IRQ/ in the summary and all the English text below.
