Please put the subsystem and driver in your subject: as we have no idea
what this is referring to otherwise.  Look at the other patches that
have been accepted for this driver to see examples of how to do that by
running:
	git log drivers/staging/wilc1000

Also, note that this is a network driver, so the comments here are
already in the correct format, so I don't think this patch is needed at
all, do you?

thanks,
