Patch change log and your comments do not belong into the commit
message; these should co into the comment section (below the "---"
line).

Instead, please add a description of the exact problem you are trying
to fix.

We don't add (C) entries for minor patches - your credits are
sufficiently recorded in the git commit log.

This makes little sense.  If this is a possible error, it should be a
printf().  But is it?

This is an unrelated change.  It has no place in this patch.

Please submit separately, with respective comments for why uyou are
doing this, if you really want to change this.

I think this is bogus.   Please clean up your patch!

Ditto.

Coding style cleanups should go in a separate patch.  In any case,
keep the blank line.

On which systems / in which configurations has this code been tested?

Where has this been tested?

Incorrect multiline comment style.

Which configurations have been actually tested?
