1) The patch is line wrapped so it doesn't apply.  To test, save
your email as raw text.  `cat raw_email.txt | git am`
Read Documentation/email-clients.txt.

2) The subject could be improved.  Do a:
git log --pretty=oneline drivers/staging/usbip/stub_dev.c | head
to see the correct prefix to use.

3) Instead of "Code cleanup" choose a more descriptive name like
"Delete commented code."

4) Use your full name for the Signed-off-by line.

Please fix these and resend.

If you want, you can leave linux-usb@...r.kernel.org and
linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org off the CC list, because no one on
those lists care about trivial patches to the Staging tree.

regards,
dan carpenter
