[Conor Dooley]

Hey Vineet,

While you're at it with Jess' concerns, couple nitpicks for you.
May as well say them now rather than while a v2 comes around.

You can drop this, even if it reported against a private branch AFAIU,
just like its complaints about patches. As Greg would say, LKP didn't
report a feature!

Surely that fits inside 80?

While I'm already passing through, checkpatch isn't the biggest fan of
