Hi,

Actually on the website it's return that 

Pick a warning, and try to fix it. For your first patch, only pick one warning. In the future you can group multiple changes into one patch, but only if you follow the PatchPhilosophy of breaking each patch into logical changes.


That's hwy I just fix one warning. 


Please let me know if I can fix more than one warning in my first patch.


Thanks,

Shirish

Why did you not fix the definition of R256 in the other half of
the "#if SKEIN_UNROLL_256 == 0" code?  Or the definitions for R512
and R1024?  You cleaned up one case, and left another 5 cases alone....

(This is part of why blindly fixing checkpatch complaints without actually
looking at the code and understanding isn't always a good thing)
