These lines are no supposed to be part of the body of the email and the actual patch itself has been line-wrapped breaking it. I've fixed this up manually this time. But next time please use git send-email to submit patches to avoid breakage like this. Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to me review-hans branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans Note it will show up there once I've pushed my local branch there, which might take a while. Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next merge-window. Regards, Hans
