This patch is an updated version of another patch you sent, so you must
use the "v2" prefix. Furthermore, you need to have to name of the
subsystem that change. So it should be something like: 
[PATCH v2] staging: rtl8712: <short description of the commit>

And I think the person who wrote that just wanted to stress it by
duplicating "very". So I don't think this patch is necessary.

Best regards,
