Subject: Re: [PATCH] i2c/busses: fix spellint typo

Hi zuoqilin,

There's an obvious typo in the subject. Which is kind of ironical
considering the point of your patch.

Also, your patch is driver-specific, so "i2c/busses:" isn't an
appropriate prefix. According to the standard practice for the i2c
subsystem, the proper prefix for the subject would be: "i2c: sis630:".

Please start your sentences with a capital and end them with a dot.

Other than that, the change looks OK, thanks.
