Hi,

This is the friendly patch-bot of Greg Kroah-Hartman.  You have sent him
a patch that has triggered this response.  He used to manually respond
to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept
writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was
created.  Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem
in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux
kernel tree.

You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s)
as indicated below:

- Your patch did many different things all at once, making it difficult
  to review.  All Linux kernel patches need to only do one thing at a
  time.  If you need to do multiple things (such as clean up all coding
  style issues in a file/driver), do it in a sequence of patches, each
  one doing only one thing.  This will make it easier to review the
  patches to ensure that they are correct, and to help alleviate any
  merge issues that larger patches can cause.

- You did not specify a description of why the patch is needed, or
  possibly, any description at all, in the email body.  Please read the
  section entitled "The canonical patch format" in the kernel file,
  Documentation/SubmittingPatches for what is needed in order to
  properly describe the change.

- You did not write a descriptive Subject: for the patch, allowing Greg,
  and everyone else, to know what this patch is all about.  Please read
  the section entitled "The canonical patch format" in the kernel file,
  Documentation/SubmittingPatches for what a proper Subject: line should
  look like.

- It looks like you did not use your "real" name for the patch on either
  the Signed-off-by: line, or the From: line (both of which have to
  match).  Please read the kernel file, Documentation/SubmittingPatches
  for how to do this correctly.

- Your patch does not match the description at all.

If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.

thanks,

greg k-h's patch email bot

The .mod.c files are not really part of the Linux kernel source code. 
They are generated during the kernel build process.  There is no point 
checking them with checkpatch.pl.  If you are adding them to your git 
repository, then you are doing something wrong.

Did something go wrong with the patch generation?  You say that you are
removing one line, but the diff information looks like you are adding a
file.  Normally a patch has only the changed lines and a few lines before
and after.

You need to put your real name when contributing to the Linux kernel.

For example, I would put:

Julia Lawall <julia.lawall@inria.fr>

Thank you Julia for your timely feedback and intervention. i think the 
patch got mixed up after i did git add <name of file modified> now i 
understand it was a wrong move.  will fix that right away and submit.
Thanks again.

Actually, someone else said that it is a generated file.  So you should
just move on to something else.
