This comment makes the code more confusing rather than easier to
understand.

In fact I fail to see the reason for this patch, as a whole, at all.

I hate to do this, but I am explitly letting you know that I am not going
to invest any more time reviewing any submissions you make.

They are all poorly formed, lack proper complete explanations, are
buggy, or add no value at all to the driver.

And the situation is not improving.  This has been going on for several
weeks now, and I have to draw the line somewhere.
