If you don't have a real device to test on, please state that clearly in
the commit log. For example, "Compile tested only" or something like

We get way too much untested patches where there's no indication that
they have had no testing. I'm really concerned about this trend, I'm
even considering should I just start dropping these kind of untested
cleanup patches?
