The code changes look fine.  You just need to correct the commit 
message, as pointed out by Dan Carpenter.

For reference, everything below the "---" cut-off line gets stripped out 
of the commit message in the git repository, so that is a good place to 
add comments about the patch itself (such as change logs) that do not 
belong in the commit message.
