Everybody has to start somewhere. The description is good, it explains 'why', which is the important thing. The signed-off-by is there, and it looks like it did not get mangled by your mailer. I suspect if you run ./scripts/checkpatch.pl on the patch it will ask you to use something other than printk(KERN_DEBUG). I guess this comes later in the Outreach internship program, so don't worry about it. But it is a useful script to know about. Andrew
