Thanks Venkat for the patch, but unforntunately it has some issues.

First a patch should do only one thing, here it is attempting to do 3
things. I would urge you to read up on Documentation/process/* files. They
should help and feel free to ask.

Also title should document the patch, what it does and not fixes.

This one actually sounds okay

I typically dont take ./checkpatch.pl fixes as this causes many issues like
backporting on stable. So please drop these
