I sincerely apologize for that. This is my very first kernel patch, and I was experimenting with the Makefile earlier on my local machine. I accidentally staged and included it in my commit alongside the driver fix without realizing it.

To be completely honest, no. I only ran `checkpatch.pl` to verify the warning was resolved.

I will clean up my Git tree, figure out how to test-build the specific sm750 module locally, and then submit a clean v2 patch. Thank you for your patience with a beginner.

Best regards,
