Hi Sevinj,

You can do this to make sure your commit msg 'looks' similar to
others in the file:

$git log --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit

d6ad258ae15d staging: rtl8723bs: Remove redundant else branches.
24e65aac9457 staging: rtl8723bs: remove rf type branching (fourth patch)
167fc30e8e51 staging: rtl8723bs: remove unused macros
d7361874468f staging: rtl8723bs: fix camel case in struct wlan_bcn_info
6994aa430368 staging: rtl8723bs: fix camel case in struct ndis_802_11_ssid

That tells me the 'Remove' should not start with an uppercase and
there should be no period at the end of line. Note that I look at this
per patch, because different drivers and subsystems have different
conventions. The point is to try to discern the prevailing style,
and follow it.

Please check the get_maintainers instruction in the first patch tutorial.
I only got this: 

$ git show HEAD | perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl --separator , --nokeywords --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats

Please state the 'why' of this patch. ie something like:
Adhere to Linux kernel coding style.

> This patch fixes the following checkpatch.pl warning:
The phrases 'This patch' is frowned upon as unecessarily wordy.
Perhaps simply:
Reported by checkpatch:

You have another patch in flight with similar things to update.
Please post a v2 of that one that addresses the feedback given
here.

I thought both patches had good scope in that they addressed multiple
instances of the same issue in a single file.

Thanks!
