Re: [PATCH] drm/vkms: fix warning in vkms_get_vblank_timestamp

[Melissa Wen]

Hi Sidong,

Thanks for this patch.

The code looks good to me; however, I see some issues in the patch
format and commit message. Please, see inline comments.

You need to fix the Author name.

I consider *fix* a somewhat strong term to this change. In my opinion,
it would be better to choose another term in the commit message like
*avoid* timestamp warning when vblanks aren't enabled.

In the body of the commit message, I think interesting to include the
exactly warning message that this patch addresses. You could also
describe the initial values that triggers this warning and why this
approach is reasonable, as VKMS has fake clocks.

Apart from issues in commit message and format, I checked the code and it
works fine.
