Thank you for your explanation! I shouldn't have written that line and I supposed it can be ignored. Is there anything else I could do?
Best Regards,

Sorry, this is my first time to submit patch to Linux, so I'm not quite familiar with the convention. Since I was changing based on v5.15.12 and I saw others mentioning their upstream commit, I included the that commit id.
Those commits were coming from the stable backports only, they were not done by the original author.
Please forgive me and tell me what is supposed to be done if possible. I still have a lot to learn.
Please take a look at the "first kernel patch" tutorial on the kernelnewbies.org site for a good example of how to do all of this.
Also the Documentation/SubmittingPatches file in the kernel source tree should help out.
thanks,
