You are doing well Ilia. A few nitpicks

- Your first subject was better (excluding the filname) :) it was more
descriptive.

- staging has a small 's'. You can verify with;
$ git log --pretty=oneline drivers/staging/ks7010/ks_wlan_net.c

- You may like to describe the problem first, then what the patch does
to fix it;

Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

Describe your problem. Whether your patch is a one-line bug fix or
5000 lines of a new feature, there must be an underlying problem that
motivated you to do this work. Convince the reviewer that there is a
problem worth fixing and that it makes sense for them to read past the
first paragraph.

...

Once the problem is established, describe what you are actually doing
about it in technical detail. It's important to describe the change
in plain English for the reviewer to verify that the code is behaving
as you intend it to.

The actual patch looks good to me.

Hope this helps,
Tobin.
