The entire above line doesn't give any information (except the file name,
but that can easily be seen from what comes just below).  A commit message
that would get to the point (what you did) more quickly could be something
like: "Put constant on the right side of a test.  Problem found using
checkpatch."

I thought warning is clearly showing that constant should be on right
side that's why I did not include any extra detail just include one
warning in patch. But surely from next time I will follow your as per
your valuable feedback.
