Re: [PATCH] DAS1800: Fixing foo * bar should be foo *bar

No signed-off line.  Just merge both patches since they do the same
thing and go to the same maintainers.

Unless it's a bugfix for a security issue then we don't fix other
people's patches.  You have to resend.

You need a changelog comment here, please.

And is that your "real" email address and name?

There's nothing wrong with using "Joe Borġ" as your signed-off-by: line,
as that's your real name :)

Please wrap your changelog comments at 72 colums, like git asks you to
when you type them in.

Ok, real minor nits here, but I'd like you to make them for future
patches as it makes my life easier, and I don't like to edit patches by
hand, as I don't scale very well.

Your subject should be:
[PATCH] staging: comedi: das1800: fix for * bar to be foo *bar

you need to add the driver subsystem, and specific area and driver.  And
no kernel drivers are ALL CAPS, so that should never be used.

I've taken this patch as-is, but in the future please try to do this.

Oh, one more thing:

You forgot a ':' here :)
