Perhaps

Coccinelle emits WARNING: return of 0/1 in function 'ssi_is_hw_key' with return type bool.

Return 'false' instead of 0.

So close! The order of problem description and fix is inverted. What about

```
coccinelle emits: WARNING: return of 0/1 in function 'ssi_is_hw_key' with
return type bool.

Return "false" instead of 0.
```


Good luck,

Hi Suniel,

Well done with you continued versions. I am being particularly nit picky here but since we are
striving for perfection I'm sure will humour me. If English is not your first language please
forgive me for picking you up on language subtleties.

This should be a description of the problem, so saying _why_ there is a problem or _what_ is wrong
with the code currently that warrants a patch. Sometimes while describing the problem you may
include descriptions of the solution especially it is not immediately obvious why your proposed
solution fixes the issue being explained. As an extra we shouldn't ever say 'This patch ...' or
'This does xyz'.

Perfect, this is in imperative mood. Spot on!

As stated I am being particularly 'nit picky', the commit log is _probably_ good enough to be
merged, I am not a maintainer though so it's not really anything to do with me. I do know however
that sometimes patches go to the bottom of Greg's list if they have comments/suggestions. I mention
this only so you learn more about the process and to help you with successfully getting you patches
merged. Keep up the work!

Good luck,
Tobin.

Hi Tobin,

First of all, I thank you very much for the reviews, to be honest I enjoyed the process. Yes all of 
us, here we are striving for perfection. I am always open to take suggestions from the community to 
improve things which I am working on and there by improving myself. Yeah English is not my first
language, but all my education was done in English, no issues there.

Thanks once again Tobin, I love feedback and that's how we can make this world a better workplace.
