In the current kernel USB device driver code, only the name field is
required to be provided; all other fields are optional.
Use the command grep -rnw "struct usb_device_driver" to inspect
how specific drivers are declared.

Correct this part of the description.

That last sentence should not be part of the patch description; it 
doesn't explain the patch's purpose or what the patch does.  (It's not 
even correct, because the grep output doesn't show how the specific 
drivers are declared.  It mainly shows the filenames and line numbers 
where the declarations start.)

Aside from that,
