Improving the code readability and coding style compliance of the code.
Running checkpatch.pl on the file raised coding style warnings:
-The comment block needs "*" on all lines of the block
from line 8 to 26
-Use tabs for indent
on line 103 and 115

Applying the patch fixes these coding style issues and makes the code more
readable/developer friendly.

Hi Abid,

I cannot apply your patch. Are you using the right git repo?

git branch -a

I found the issue, I have been amending these changes on the mainline repo,
$ git remote show origin
* remote origin
Fetch URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git

I need to clone the staging branch.
Please also change your Description. Concentrate on why this patch makes
sense. Do not describe the patch. What is changed can be seen below. Please
also use the correct time.

I did not understand the correct time here. could you please
elaborate a little on this please.

Hi Abid,

please visit:

https://kernelnewbies.org/PatchPhilosophy#Patch_description_format_for_checkpatch_fixes

Look for this clause:
"In patch descriptions and in the subject, it is common and preferable to use present-tense, imperative language. Write as if you are telling git what to do with your patch. For example, instead of:"

This is about the time that should be used in patches.

Bye Philipp

You can find accepted examples in the git repo.

I'll look into the accepted patches right now. Meanwhile I have this question
, descriptions addressing only the coding style issue fixes are acceptable or
it needs to be having somethingelse too? (apologies in advance for
this illy question)
Thanks for your support.

Bye Philipp

Thank Youy for your feedbacks
