We need a blank line before the signed-off-by line, as well as a
"real/full" name being used (unless you use only "Sumantro" on legal
documents.)

Also, you need to be a bit more verbose in the changelog text, no need
to repeat the driver and subsystem name, it's up there in the subject
line.

Look at other patches for the driver for examples of what needs to be
done here.

thanks,
