Hi,

No need to resend the patch, this is just something to consider for the
future. A changelog entry which reads like "Addressed Jon Does comments" is
not really useful since most people will probably not know or not longer
remember all the details of those comments, instead a nice list of all the
changes which have been made is much better. E.g.:

Changes since v6:
	* Fixed debugfs_read_reg
	* Introduced timeout when waiting for the data ready IRQ
	* Slightly reformatted exynos_read_raw for better legibility
