The file description comment starts with "/**", which is reserved for

Warning: drivers/hwmon/yogafan.c:2 This comment starts with '/**',
but isn't a kernel-doc comment. Refer to
Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
Change it to a plain "/*" comment since it does not document any
function or struct.

No change log, no change other than the commit message, that change
does not add any value, and I already applied this patch and sent
out a note that I did.
Are you playing with me ? I am inclined to drop this patch.
