Hi Arend,

attaching a format-patch like version.
I don't think we need a Tested-by or whatever, because it is just a typo in a comment.
(this is my first contribution, feel free to rebase or change whatever you prefer
to make it in line with other styles)

(I gave authorship to Marco, the first one who discovered such typo)

thanks!

G.

Please note that you cannot add Signed-off-by for other people without
their explicit approval (see Documentation/SubmittingPatches). I don't
know if they did it in this case or not, but wanted to point out this
anyway.

The first signoff is myself, with the company email, the other two signoffs
are from: the author, and Nicola, who did work with me to test it
(even if a typo fix is not "testable").

Nicola, Marco, is it ok to add your two names in the signoff part?
(that was a verbal talk, I don't have anything written)

Good, so we got now approvals from both of them. Thanks.

Thanks, Kalle

It was on my list to give a contrib boot camp here. So let's go over
things here albeit it late.

Hi Gianfrance,

A couple of things from which you may benefit for future contributions.
Basic info can be found in Documentation/SubmittingPatches as Kalle
indicated.

Patches should not be submitted as attachments. After doing 'git
format-patch' the easiest way is using 'git send-email' (which requires
you to have sendmail on your system properly setup). I tend to send
patches to Kalle and Cc: linux-wireless, but that is my personal
preference. Sending it to the list should be sufficient as patchwork
will pick it up [1].

When it comes to attribution of others you should have their approval
for Signed-off-by. However, reading your remarks it seems a proper way
is below:

Reported-by: Arlone Marco <marco.arlone@roj.com>
Tested-by: Nicola Smaldone <nicola.smaldone@tierraservice.com>

Signed-off-by: Gianfranco Costamagna <gianfranco.costamagna@abinsula.com>


Regards,
Arend
