This line is over 75 characters which breaks linux kernel coding style.
Use "$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict <patch>" from now on before
sending your patch off to catch things like this. Also, this note
belongs in your v2 changes below the "---".

This should also be below the "---" in v2 changes.

Your header begins with "[PATCH] [PATCH]" [PATCH] should only happen
once and since it appears this is your v2 it should have been [PATCH
v2]. Also, you used "staging-next:" I guess you were using the branch
name but, the correct way to do it is just "staging:".

Please visit Dan Carpenter's guide on submitting a v2: (but this next
one will be your v3)
