BTW, Did anyone suggest you to fix errors/warnings reported by
checkpatch.pl?

You seem to be 2nd person who sent similar patch from @suo.com
within the last week. The first patch was rejected as well,
see
https://lore.kernel.org/all/f2d8eb955890bc1db1b307db713d4a4a@208suo.com/

You might want to tell this person that there are better ways
how to get involved into the kernel development.
