2) Changed "register 0x%x" to "register=0x%x" to keep the consistency
of this file.
3) The kernel version is next-20150515, 4.1.0-rc3.

You shouldn't mention point 3 in the commit message as it will look a bit strange when it ends up in the commit log. If you need to mention that, it should go after the commit message, separated from the patch by a "---" line like this:

Body of commit message goes here.

Signed off by and Cc lines go here.
---
Additional patch commentary goes here.
---
Actual patch goes here.

Git will ignore the additional commentary when the patch is applied.

Apart from that niggle, the patch looks good!
