As noted by others, this needs to go at the end of the changelog
comment.

Also, always run your patches through the scripts/checkpatch.pl script
and fix the warnings and errors it finds. To not do so is just rude as
you are asking us to do the basic review work that you yourself did not
do in the first place.

Nope, this whole patch set is doomed if this isn't fixed, I'm not going
to accept it no matter how much you want to try to say this is ok on
this hardware.
