Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] media: staging: max96712: fix copy-paste error

HI Ihor,

Thanks for your work.

Maybe use a more descriptive commit title? The idea is to describe the 
issue a patch addresses in the title. Not the reason why the issue was 
introduced, this goes into the commit message. Imagine another 
copy-paste error is found in the driver, then we would have two commits 
with the same title.

How about?

  'media: staging: max96712: Fix device name in description'
