Hi Allan,
Thanks for submitting the patch.  I can advise as well since this
probably won't get applied due to how the email is "structured".

Your email which includes the patch needs to follow the "patch format"
described in Documentation/SubmittingPatches (see linux source tree).

Your email should have three main sections:
1) commit log entry + signed-off-by lines followed by one line with
"---" (and nothing else). This text summarizes *why* the patch is
needed: what bug it fixes or feature it enables.
2) optional comments/information about the testing of the patch (e.g.
"tested on Samsung Chromebook" or other comments that do NOT belong in
the commit log entry above. This section can be empty - not required.
3) "diff -u" format patch (this is what "git diff" will produce).

Do not append any other emails or additional text.

thanks!
