Please add a proper commit message.  And there's no need to put all
these people in Cc: in the commit log.  CC'ing when sending the patch is
enough (even though for such small patch, the linux-wireless mailing
list and myself is enough).

What more would you like covered in the commit message that isn't
obvious from the subject?

The Cc list comes from scripts/get_maintainers.pl as suggested by
Documentation/SubmittingPatches: "5) Select e-mail destination."

It's obvious from the subject, indeed.  But commits with no descriptions
are ugly.  Add something, for example a small "why" would be nice.

The Cc list comes from scripts/get_maintainers.pl as suggested by
Documentation/SubmittingPatches: "5) Select e-mail destination."
Yeah, that's correct, but it doesn't mean you should put them as Cc:
tags in the commit log.  CCing when *sending* the email only is enough.
Most people won't really care for the entire lifetime of this patch.
And, come on, the Cc tags take more space than the actual patch.

[PATCH 3.6-rc3 v2] wlcore: Declare MODULE_FIRMWARE usage

From: Tim Gardner <hidden>
Date: 2012-08-29 19:10:12

Declare any firmware that might be used by this driver.
If all drivers declare their firmware usage, then a sufficiently
complete list of firmware files can then be used to pare down
the external linux-firmware package to just the files in actual use.
