Similar comment to what Fabio made.
But I'll add some formatting comments.
It looks like you have submitted a 2 patch series which fixes all the
checkpatch errors in the vme_user driver?
yes, each patch for specific error in multi-position.
Kudos for separating out the 2 patches for the 2 different types of
checkpatch errors! And for submitting a series which fixes the entire
driver!
to double check that i understood right, you mean I should create one
patch-set for one error?
Because I have already done that in previous patch but Julia commented
on it that no need to create patch-set
for the same error.
But you should also include a cover letter for your series.
okay, I will include it.
How are you creating this series? Are you using 'git format-patch'?
'b4'? If not using 'b4' I strongly recommend it.[*]
yes, used ' git format-patch` but I will try b4.
Both of those tools can help with formatting a cover letter and b4 will
help keep track of multiple versions of the series as you fix things.
