Please do not use "This commit/patch/change", but imperative mood. See
longer explanation here:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.17.1/source/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#L95

This we see from the patch. Say what hardware are you adding?

Please run scripts/checkpatch.pl and fix reported warnings. Then please
run `scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict` and (probably) fix more warnings.
Some warnings can be ignored, especially from --strict run, but the code
here looks like it needs a fix. Feel free to get in touch if the warning
is not clear.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
