Subject: Re: [PATCH V4] arch: kernel: cpu: x86/resctrl: Takes a letter away
 and append a colon to match below struct member

Hi Bhaskar,

The prefix in the subject line should be "x86/resctrl:" only. The 
subject line could be (also taking liberty to shorten it here):
x86/resctrl: Fix typo and append a colon to match struct member

I would like to repeat my suggestion made in response to your previous 
version, especially if you are planning cleanup in many areas of the 
kernel: Use "git log" to take a look at the custom of patches in the 
area you are contributing to. While the kernel may appear to be a single 
code base there can be different customs in the various subsystems.
