Without seeing the upstream commit, the patch subject is misleading:
the patch doesn't fix any syntax errors as one might get from the
compiler.

Also, what I find irritating is that I have never seen reply from
@cdjrlc.com people to review comments pointing flaws of their patch.
I guess they don't have any other jobs here in LKML other than just
throwing one-line redundant word stripping patches. The similar cause
is why Jani Nikula [1] and Greg NAKed cgel.zte patches (ignoring
reviews and "atypical" corporate email structure [2])

Hence NAK (agree with your verdict). However, should the upstream
commit be reverted?
