Hi Felix,

Please make your "Subject" line more unique. Consider that we may end up 
with having dozen of commits like yours, all of them referring to 
different removals and all without the necessary information to tell 
what they differ in (except the driver/subsystem). So it would help if 
you add the changed file or function to make it more unique.

Please do not add extra empty lines in the description when not 
required. Consider that we have a lot of commits and it is most wanted 
that the description is short.

It is not required to add the name of the tool who found this, but it 
can be named. Much more important is a good description why this change 
makes sense...
For example:
... to shorten code.
... to improve readability.
...

I cannot apply your patch:
