Hi Nick

Since you are new to the kernel, please let me point out, you should
consider Russell comments for all your code, not just this one file.
Many of the comments are generic to code anywhere in the kernel. So it
would be good to fix the same issues in the rest of your code base
before submitting them.

I would also suggest that when you start submitting drivers, submit
just one or two to start with. You will learn a lot from the feedback
you get, and you can apply what you have learnt to the rest of your
code before you post them for review.

I would also suggest you spend 30 minutes a day just reading comments
other patches receive. You can also learn a lot that way, see if the
comments apply to your own code. You will also learn about processes
this way, which can be just as challenging to get right as code.

Andrew
