You should have [PATCH 1/2] and [PATCH 2/2]. b. Subject should be something like [PATCH 1/2] thinkpad_acpi: fix octal permissions (if they need to be fixed) > --- > diff --git a/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c b/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c > index 2242d60..9ad1f5b 100644 > --- a/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c > +++ b/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c > @@ -9574,7 +9574,7 @@ static int __init set_ibm_param(const char *val, struct kernel_param *kp) > MODULE_PARM_DESC(experimental, > "Enables experimental features when non-zero"); > > -module_param_named(debug, dbg_level, uint, 0); Is 0 not octal? > +module_param_named(debug, dbg_level, uint, 0444; missing closing ')'.
