Good work resubmitting this following Greg's comments. May I suggest
some ways to hasten your success.

Note firstly, that I appreciate that writing the gitlog message is
very difficult to do well. I am by no means an expert.

 - You don't need to mention the file, especially not in the subject. We
   can see the files changed from the patch itself.
 - You should refrain from using 'this patch', the subject (as in
   subject, object, verb) is implicit.

See Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst (Section 2: Describe
your changes). 

Example

Checkpatch emits WARNING: Block comments use a trailing */ on a
separate line.

Move trailing */ to separate line.

Good luck,
Tobin.
