Hi Meir,
please keep the emailaddess send from and the Signed-off-by emailaddress
exactly the same. The difference is the
"G" of gmail. One time it is upper case and one time lower case.
The changelog for the coverletter is good but the changelog for each
patch is missing. There the "---" are missing with chagelog.
Please use more unique descriptions for your patches. "Remove extra
spaces" can be an issue for hundred of times in a driver.
Look into accepted patches of the git for better examples.
I think the maintainer will not like your patch description. He will
typically respond with:
- You did not specify a description of why the patch is needed, or
possibly, any description at all, in the email body. Please read the
section entitled "The canonical patch format" in the kernel file,
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst for what is needed in
order to properly describe the change.
Very important here is the why and not to describe what you did.
Look into accepted patches of the git for better examples.
Thanks for your support.
Bye Philipp
