Do you have a better description ... like what is the user visible
effect of correcting the constant?

Does this look better:

"This fix ensures that the IOP_LOGINFO_CODE_TASK_TERMINATED
messages do not clutter the sas_log_info messages."

Thanks,

what you're doing and why you're doing it.  Just translating C to
english isn't useful because everyone who looks a kernel patches can
read C.
