Please use smaller field names, perhaps "wmema wmemq sndbuf rcvbuf"

This does not belong in the commit message proper, it belongs in the
ancillary information you provide after the "---" delimeter.

> v2: Not changing spacing between the fields.

Similarly this supplemental information belongs after "---"

This is not indented properly, the second line should have the "
appearing at the first column after the openning parenthesis
of the seq_printf() call.

The goal is not to exclusively use TAB characters to indent the
line into outer space, the goal is to use the appropriate of
TAB, then space, characters as necessary to indent the code to
the correct column.
