The patch is OK, but the patch subject is bad. You should have "[PATCH] rtlwifi:...". Your patch is for rtlwifi, not wireless.
Hi Devendra. A reasonable rule of thumb is use the deepest directory path basename you can to prefix the patch. Something like: [PATCH] $(basename $(dirname $file)): terse description If you are patching drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/apt.c this becomes: [PATCH] realtek: terse description There are some exceptions though. One of them is if the patch is in staging, prefix with [PATCH] staging: $(basename $(dirname $file)): description cheers, Joe
