Personally I'd rather a sentence or two saying something like
"Fix some types and grammar issues in sched deadline comments."
Or something.  I know that's basically same as the title, but
that gets lost in the subject line, so maybe worded a little
differently? For this it probably doesn't need much but does
need something. 

I'm not the one to merge it though so I don't know if the
maintainer wanted to just fix it up at the time.   Just my
opinion...


For the changes themselves, fwiw,
