This is still not correct. All of this From, Date information should not be in the message. And there should be a log message describing the change, not just a description in the subject line. Please look at the patches sent by others and reread the tutorial to see what steps you have done wrong.

You need to also check the archives to see whether the change is welcome. Greg tends to reject this change unless you have tested it because you are changing the behavior of the driver. Without testing you don’t know if you have chosen the correct range.
